In this paper, we propose a multivariate market model with returns assumed to follow a multivariate normal tempered stable distribution. This distribution, defined by a mixture of the multivariate normal distribution and the tempered stable subordinator, is consistent with two stylized facts...

In this paper we derive closed-form solutions for the cumulative density function and the average value-at-risk for five subclasses of the infinitely divisible distributions: classical tempered stable distribution, Kim-Rachev distribution, modified tempered stable distribution, normal tempered...

Portfolio risk estimation in volatile markets requires employing fat-tailed models for financial returns combined with … copula functions to capture asymmetries in dependence and an appropriate downside risk measure. In this survey, we discuss … how these three essential components can be combined together in a Monte Carlo based framework for risk estimation and …
