Backtesting risk measures represents a challenge and complex methods are often required. In this paper, we propose a new framework for backtesting that can be applied to every law invariant risk measures. We base our approach on the formalization of the concept of level of coverage associated...

This paper presents the first methodological proposal of estimation of the Lambda VaR. Our approach is dynamic and calibrated to market extreme scenarios, incorporating the need of regulators and financial institutions in more sensitive risk measures. We also propose a simple backtesting...

Risk contributions of portfolios form an indispensable part of risk adjusted performance measurement. The risk contribution of a portfolio, e.g., in the Euler or Aumann-Shapley framework, is given by the partial derivatives of a risk measure applied to the portfolio profit and loss in direction...
