Prediction of Financial Downside-Risk with Heavy-Tailed Conditional Distributions
The use of GARCH models with stable Paretian innovations in financial modeling has been recently suggested in the literature. This class of processes is attractive because it allows for conditional skewness and leptokurtosis of financial returns without ruling out normality. This contribution illustrates their usefulness in predicting the downside risk of financial assets in the context of mode...

متن کاملStochastic Volatility Models: Conditional Normality versus Heavy-Tailed Distributions
Most of the empirical applications of the stochatic volatility (SV) model are based on the assumption that the conditional distribution of returns given the latent volatility process is normal. In this paper the SV model based on a conditional normal distribution is compared with SV speciications using conditional heavy-tailed distributions, especially Student's t-distribution and the generaliz...
متن کاملNon-parametric estimation of extreme risk measures from conditional heavy-tailed distributions
In this paper, we introduce a new risk measure, the so-called Conditional Tail Moment. It is de-fined as the moment of order a ≥ 0 of the loss distribution above the upper α-quantile whereα ∈ (0, 1). Estimating the Conditional Tail Moment permits to estimate all risk measuresbased on conditional moments such as Conditional Tail Expectation, Conditional Value-at-Risk or Condi...
متن کاملHeavy - Tailed Probability Distributions
Combinatorial search methods often exhibit a large variability in performance. We study the cost prooles of combinatorial search procedures. Our study reveals some intriguing properties of such cost prooles. The distributions are often characterized by very long tails or \heavy tails". We will show that these distributions are best characterized by a general class of distributions that have no ...
