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...

We introduce the regulatory arbitrage of risk measures, one of the key considerations in choosing a suitable risk measure to use in banking regulation. A regulatory arbitrage is the amount of capital requirement reduced by splitting a financial risk into several fragments, regulated via a risk...

In this paper, we study the worst-case scenarios of a general class of risk measures, the Range Value-at-Risk (RVaR), in single and aggregate risk models with given mean and variance, as well as symmetry and/or unimodality of each risk. For different types of partial information settings, sharp...

Finding the worst-case value of a preference over a set of plausible models is a well-established approach to address the issue of model uncertainty or ambiguity. In this paper, we study the worst-case evaluation of Yaari's dual utility functionals of an aggregate risk under dependence...

It is natural to connect reinsurance problems with risk measures since a reinsurance contract is an efficient risk management tool for an insurer and the reinsurance premium can also be viewed as a measure of a reinsurer's risk. In this paper, we assume that the insurer uses a law-invariant...

We bring the recently developed framework of dependence uncertainty into collective risk models, one of the most classic models in actuarial science. We study the worst-case values of the Value-at-Risk (VaR) and the Expected Shortfall (ES) of the aggregate loss in collective risk models, under...

We address the problem of risk sharing among agents using a two-parameter class of quantile-based risk measures, the so-called Range-Value-at-Risk (RVaR), as their preferences. The family of RVaR includes the Value-at-Risk (VaR) and the Expected Shortfall (ES), the two popular and competing...

Recent literature has investigated the risk aggregation of a portfolio X=(Xi) under the sole assumption that the marginal distributions of the risks Xi are specified but not their dependence structure. There exists a range of possible values for any risk measure of S=X1 X2 ... Xn and the...

In this paper we study the aggregate risk of inhomogeneous risks with dependence uncertainty, evaluated by a generic risk measure. We say that a pair of risk measures are asymptotically equivalent if the ratio of the worst-case values of the two risk measures is almost one for the sum of a large...

In this paper, we investigate the asymptotic behavior of the portfolio diversification ratio based on Value-at-Risk (quantile) under dependence uncertainty, which we refer to as "worst-case diversification limit." We show that the worst-case diversification limit is equal to the upper limit of...
