Value-at-Risk (VaR) analysis. We propose a semi-parametric method for VaRevaluation. The largest risks are modelled … oflow probability worst outcomes, RiskMetrics analysis underpredicts the VaR while historical simulationoverpredicts the VaR …. However, the estimates obtained from applying the semi-parametric method aremore accurate in the VaR prediction. In addition …

We present a simple new methodology to allow for time-variation in volatilities using a recursive updating scheme similar to the familiar RiskMetrics approach. It exploits the link between exponentially weighted moving average and integrated dynamics of score driven time varying parameter...

The computation of various risk metrics is essential to the quantitative risk management of variable annuity guaranteed benefits. The current market practice of Monte Carlo simulation often requires intensive computations, which can be very costly for insurance companies to implement and take so...

In this paper we define risk management in terms of choosing sensibly from a variety of risk models, discuss the … practices, forecasting VaR and daily capital charges, and discuss alternative policy recommendations, especially in light of the …

The Basel Committee on … Banking Supervision (2013, p. 3) noted that: "a number of weaknesses have been identified with using VaR for determining … function that is adopted (ES versus VaR); and (2) their estimated counterparts.
