چکیده

Risk measurement involves estimating some functional of a loss distribution. This calls for nested simulation, in which risk factors are sampled at an outer level of simulation, while the inner level of simulation provides estimates of loss given each realization of the risk factors. We present a general method for providing a confidence interval for the risk measurement. It involves combining a confidence region for the losses with the confidence interval that would be used if the losses were known. This method could be very time-consuming, so we discuss ways of improving its efficiency. One is to choose the structure of the confidence region for the losses in a way that is tailored to the particular risk measure. Another involves varying the simulation effort expended on estimating the losses associated with different risk factors, even screening out many of the risk factors after slight simulation effort has revealed them to be unlikely to have much impact on the estimated risk measure. We will discuss two-level simulation in general and a specific procedure for estimating a confidence interval for tail conditional expectation.

A Confidence Interval Procedure for Expected Shortfall Risk Measurement via Two-Level Simulation

We develop and evaluate a two-level simulation procedure that produces a confidence interval for expected shortfall. The outer level of simulation generates financial scenarios, whereas the inner level estimates expected loss conditional on each scenario. Our procedure uses the statistical theory of empirical likelihood to construct a confidence interval. It also uses tools from the ranking-and...

Prediction of an ATM LAN Performance

A real extended LAN is re-designed by replacing its FDDI backbone with an ATM LAN compliant with version 1.0 of ATM Forum LAN Emulation standard. The designed ATM LAN is studied through two sets of simulations. The results of the first one, characterized by a load level equal to the one measured on the real network, show that the ATM LAN can support the traffic currently present on the real net...
