Aggregation-robustness and model uncertainty of regulatory risk measures

چکیده
Research related to aggregation, robustness, and model uncertainty of regulatory risk measures, for instance, Value-at-Risk (VaR) and Expected Shortfall (ES), is of fundamental importance within quantitative risk management. In risk aggregation, marginal risks and their dependence structure are often modeled separately, leading to uncertainty arising at the level of a joint model. In this paper, we introduce a notion of qualitative robustness for risk measures, concerning the sensitivity of a risk measure to the uncertainty of dependence in risk aggregation. It turns out that coherent risk measures, such as ES, are more robust than VaR according to the new notion of robustness. We also give approximations and inequalities for aggregation and diversification of VaR under dependence uncertainty, and derive an asymptotic equivalence for worst-case VaR and ES under general conditions. We obtain that for a portfolio of a large number of risks VaR generally has a larger uncertainty spread compared to ES. The results warn that unjustified diversification arguments for VaR used in risk management need to be taken with much care, and potentially support the use of ES in risk aggregation. This in particular reflects on the discussions in the recent consultative documents by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision.

A Stochastic Programming Approach for a Multi-Site Supply Chain Planning in Textile and Apparel Industry under Demand Uncertainty
In this study, a new stochastic model is proposed to deal with a multi-product, multi-period, multi-stage, multi-site production and transportation supply chain planning problem under demand uncertainty. A two-stage stochastic linear programming approach is used to maximize the expected profit. Decisions such as the production amount, the inventory level of finished and semi-finished product, t...

متن کاملRobustness-based portfolio optimization under epistemic uncertainty
In this paper, we propose formulations and algorithms for robust portfolio optimization under both aleatory uncertainty (i.e., natural variability) and epistemic uncertainty (i.e., imprecise probabilistic information) arising from interval data. Epistemic uncertainty is represented using two approaches: (1) moment bounding approach and (2) likelihood-based approach. This paper first proposes a ...
