Data-analytic approaches to the estimation of Value-at-Risk

Value at Risk measures the worst loss to be expected of a portfolio over a given time horizon at a given confidence level. Calculation of VaR frequently involves estimating the volatility of return processes and quantiles of standardized returns. In this paper, several semiparametric techniques are introduced to estimate the volatilities . In addition, both parametric and nonparametric techniqu...
