We derive multivariate risk-neutral asset distributions for major US financial institutions (FIs) using option implied … marginal risk-neutral asset distributions (RNDs) and probabilities of default (PoDs). The multivariate densities are estimated … by combining the entropy approach, dynamic copulas and rank correlations. Our density estimates yield information about …

In the work of the Basel Committee there has been a tradition of distinguishing market from credit risk and to treat … both categories independently in the calculation of risk capital. In practice positions in a portfolio depend … simultaneously on both market and credit risk factors. In this case, an approximation of the portfolio value function splitting value …

This paper contributes to the literature on early warning indicators by applying a Bayesian model averaging approach. Our analysis, based on Austrian data, is carried out in two steps: First, we construct a quarterly financial stress index (AFSI) quantifying the level of stress in the Austrian...

We examine contagion from a number of financial systems to the German financial system using the information content of CDS prices in a GARCH model. After controlling for common factors which may cause comovement in security prices, we find evidence for contagion from the US and European...

Recent literature has proposed new methods for measuring the systemic risk of financial institutions based on observed … stock returns. In this paper we examine the reliability and robustness of such risk measures, focusing on CoVaR, marginal … expected shortfall, and option-based tail risk estimates. We show that CoVaR exhibits undesired characteristics in the way it …
