Thema der Dissertation ist zum einen die Quantifizierung und zum anderen die endogene Modellierung von Finanzrisiken. Die mathematische Analyse führt unter anderem auf Zusammenhänge finanzmathematischer Probleme mit der Theorie großer Abweichungen, der Choquet-Theorie, der Theorie...

With the increasing complexity of investment options in life insurance, more and more life insurers have adopted stochastic modeling methods for the assessment and management of insurance and financial risks. The most prevalent approach in market practice, Monte Carlo simulation, has been...

The causes of financial crises are multiple but the models of financial crises revolve around four generational models. In this paper, the authors analyzed these models and highlighted the fact that each model was adapted to specific situations to explain the financial crises faced rather than...

The purpose of the Special Issue "Quantitative Methods in Economics and Finance" of the journal Risks was to provide a collection of papers that reflect the latest research and problems of pricing complex derivates, simulation pricing, analysis of financial markets, and volatility of exchange...

We investigate a systemic risk measure known as CoVaR that represents the value-at-risk (VaR) of a financial system conditional on an institution being under distress. For characterizing and estimating CoVaR, we use the copula approach and introduce the normal tempered stable (NTS) copula based...

Risk measures play a vital role in many subfields of economics and finance. It has been proposed that risk measures could be analysed in relation to the performance of variables extracted from empirical real-world data. For example, risk measures may help inform effective monetary and fiscal...
