Dear all;

I need to calculate volatility of ROE which is calculated as variance of annual ROE over the last 3 years.

I have ROE lag 1 till lag 3.

How do i calculate variance of ROE, do I calculate std deviation first then squared it?

if yes, is it calculated as

STD_VROE= Std(of ROE_lag1-ROE_lag3);

Thanks

Is it rolling (or moving) variance you are after? what does your data look like?

Not sure which variables you are investigating. But if you have ETS, then take a look at proc expand:

notice the transform operation:MOVVAR (backward moving variance), which seems to meet your need.
