We describe characteristics of various risk measures (Value-at-Risk, Expected Shortfall, etc.) that are used to analyze … and quantify the tail risk exposure, and discuss their relative strengths and weaknesses.

Considerable literature has been devoted to developing statistical inferential results for risk measures, especially … a number of risk measures that are of the form of ratios, or even more complex combinations, of two L-functionals. In … the present paper we call such combinations ‘coupled risk measures' and develop a statistical inferential theory for them …
