Margin Backtesting

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2011
This paper presents a validation framework for collateral requirements or margins on a derivatives exchange. It can be used by investors, risk managers, and regulators to check the accuracy of a margining system.

Multinomial backtesting of distortion risk measures

open access: yesInsurance: Mathematics and Economics
We extend the scope of risk measures for which backtesting models are available by proposing a multinomial backtesting method for general distortion risk measures. The method relies on a stratification and randomization of risk levels.

Backtesting Aggregate Risk

Journal of Forecasting, 2015
This paper proposes the implementation of a VaR backtesting procedure able to overcome the subadditivity property failure of value‐at‐risk (VaR). More precisely, we propose the implementation of a multivariate portmanteau test statistic of Ljung–Box type applied to hits collected from several trading desks or divisions at once.

Backtesting global Growth-at-Risk

Journal of Monetary Economics, 2019
We conduct an out-of-sample backtesting exercise of Growth-at-Risk (GaR) predictions for 24 OECD countries. We consider forecasts constructed from quantile regression and GARCH models. The quantile regression forecasts are based on a set of recently proposed measures of downside risks to GDP, including the national financial conditions index.

Simulation and Backtesting

2016
In this chapter, we will use the data and functions established thus far to build a backtester to simulate the results of trading with a given strategy. We will run our simulator with a few example strategies. We will introduce many practical trading considerations as we construct sample strategies.
