Nonparametric Inference of Value at Risk for Dependent Financial Returns

چکیده
The paper considers nonparametric estimation of Value at Risk (VaR) and associated standard error estimation for dependent financial returns. Theoretical properties of the kernel VaR estimator are investigated in the context of dependence. The presence of dependence affects the variance of the VaR estimates and has to be taken into consideration in order to obtain adequate assessment of their variation. An estimation procedure of the standard errors is proposed based on kernel estimation of the spectral density of a derived series. The performance of the VaR estimators and the proposed standard error estimation procedure are evaluated by theoretical investigation, simulation of commonly used models for financial returns, and empirical studies on real financial return series.

Robust Portfolio Optimization with risk measure CVAR under MGH distribution in DEA models
Financial returns exhibit stylized facts such as leptokurtosis, skewness and heavy-tailness. Regarding this behavior, in this paper, we apply multivariate generalized hyperbolic (mGH) distribution for portfolio modeling and performance evaluation, using conditional value at risk (CVaR) as a risk measure and allocating best weights for portfolio selection. Moreover, a robust portfolio optimizati...
متن کاملNonparametric estimation of conditional value-at-risk and expected shortfall based on extreme value theory
Abstract. We propose nonparametric estimators for conditional value-at-risk (VaR) and expected shortfall (ES) associated with conditional distributions of a series of returns on a financial asset. The return series and the conditioning covariates, which may include lagged returns and other exogenous variables, are assumed to be strong mixing and follow a fully nonparametric conditional location...
متن کاملBayesian Inference for an Extreme Value Mixture Model
Extreme value theory is used to derive asymptotically motivated models for unusual or rare events, e.g. the upper or lower tails of a distribution. A new, flexible extreme value mixture model is proposed combining a nonparametric kernel density estimator with an appropriate tail model, which overcomes the key issue of determining the threshold which defines the distribution tail and accounts fo...

Empirical studies show that there is stronger dependency between large losses than large profit in financial market, which undermine the performance of using symmetric distribution for modeling these asymmetric. That is why the assuming normal joint distribution of returns is not suitable because of considering the linier dependence, and can be lead to inappropriate estimate of VaR. Copula theo...
