With the implementation of Value-at-Risk (VaR) models a new chapter of risk management was opened. Their ultimate goal is to quantify the uncertainty about the amount that may be lost or gained on a portfolio over a given period of time. Most generally, the uncertainty is expressed by a forecast distribution P t+1 for period t+1 associated with the ...

A K-Means Classification and Entropy Pooling Portfolio Strategy for Small and Large Capitalization Cryptocurrencies [PDF]
In this study, we propose three portfolio strategies: allocation based on the normality assumption, the skewed-Student t distribution, and the entropy pooling (EP) method for 14 small- and large-capitalization (cap) cryptocurrencies.

A Simple Traffic Light Approach to Backtesting Expected Shortfall
We propose a Traffic Light approach to backtesting Expected Shortfall which is completely consistent with, and analogous to, the Traffic Light approach to backtesting VaR (Value at Risk) initially proposed by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision in

Multinomial VaR backtests: A simple implicit approach to backtesting expected shortfall [PDF]
Under the Fundamental Review of the Trading Book (FRTB) capital charges for the trading book are based on the coherent expected shortfall (ES) risk measure, which show greater sensitivity to tail risk. In this paper it is argued that backtesting of expected shortfall - or the trading book model from which it is calculated - can be based on a ...

In the recent Basel Accords, the Expected Shortfall (ES) replaces the Value-at-Risk (VaR) as the standard risk measure for market risk in the banking sector, making it the most important risk measure in financial regulation. One of the most challenging tasks in risk modeling practice is to backtest ES forecasts provided by financial institutions.

Backtesting lambda value at risk [PDF]
A new risk measure, the lambda value at risk (Lambda VaR), has been recently proposed from a theoretical point of view as a generalization of the value at risk (VaR). The Lambda VaR appears attractive for its potential ability to solve several problems of the VaR. In this paper we propose three nonparametric backtesting methodologies for the Lambda VaR

A comparison of market risk measures from a twofold perspective: accurate and loss function [PDF]
Under the new regulation based on Basel solvency framework, known as Basel III and Basel IV, financial institutions must calculate the market risk capital requirements based on the Expected Shortfall (ES) measure, replacing the Value at Risk (VaR ...
