Value-at-Risk and expected shortfall for linear portfolios with elliptically distributed risk factors
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we generalize the parametric ∆-VaR method from portfolios with normally distributed risk factors to portfolios with elliptically distributed ones. We treat both the expected shortfall and the Value-at-Risk of such portfolios. Special attention is given to the particular case of a multivariate t-distribution.

Accurate Evaluation of Expected Shortfall for Linear Portfolios with Elliptically Distributed Risk Factors
We provide an accurate closed-form expression for the expected shortfall of linear portfolios with elliptically distributed risk factors. Our results aim to correct inaccuracies that originate in Kamdem (2005) and are present also in at least thirty other papers referencing it, including the recent survey by Nadarajah et al. (2014) on estimation methods for expected shortfall. In particular, we...
متن کاملVaR and ES for Linear Portfolios with mixture of Generalized Laplace distributed Risk Factors
In this paper, by following [3] and [4], we postpone to give an explicit estimation of Value-at-Risk and Expected Shortfall for Linear Portfolios when the risk Factors changes with mixture of generalized Laplace distributions. We therefore introduce the Delta-GLD-VaR, Delta-GLD-ES, Delta-MGLD-VaR and Delta-MGLD-ES. Note that, the GLD will give to us more flexibility to control the shape and fat...
متن کاملVaR, CVaR and Time Rules with Elliptical and Asymmetric Stable Distributed Returns
This paper proposes several parametric models to compute the portfolio VaR and CVaR in a given temporal horizon and for a given level of confidence. Firstly, we describe extension of the EWMA RiskMetrics model considering conditional elliptically distributed returns. Secondly, we examine several new models based on different stable Paretian distributional hypotheses of return portfolios. Finall...
متن کاملValue-at-Risk and Expected Shortfall for Quadratic portfolio of securities with mixture of elliptic Distributed Risk Factors
Generally, in the financial literature, the notion of quadratic VaR is implicitly confused with the Delta-Gamma VaR, because more authors dealt with portfolios that contained derivatives instruments. In this paper, we postpone to estimate both the expected shortfall and Value-at-Risk of a quadratic portfolio of securities (i.e equities) without the Delta and Gamma Greeks, when the joint log-ret...
متن کاملMeasuring Bond Portfolio Value at Risk and Expected Shortfall in US Treasury Market
This paper measured the value at risk (VaR) and expected shortfall (ES) of the US Treasury yield changes. The US Treasury yield data were tested and found to be not normally distributed. Consequently, the mixture normal model (MNM) was used to improve the delta normal VaR and ES measures. It performed extraordinarily well in all cases, based on bootstrapping and mean square error tests. In addi...
