In this paper, we characterize explicitly the first derivative of the Value at Risk and the Expected Shortfall with respect to portfolio allocation when netting between positions exists. As a particular case, we examine a simple Gaussian example in order to illustrate the impact of netting...

We propose a general robust semiparametric bootstrap method to estimate conditional predictive distributions of GARCH-type models. Our approach is based on a robust estimator for the parameters in GARCH-type models and a robustified resampling method for standardized GARCH residuals, which...

A new and quite general model class for modeling asset returns and forecasting Value at Risk is proposed. It combines a dynamic multi-component GARCH structure with the stable Paretian distributional assumption. The new model nests several successful models for modeling asset returns, including...
