This paper deals with the estimation of loss severity distribution arising from the historical data on univariate and multivariate losses. We present an innovative theoretical framework where the closed-form expression for the tail conditional expectation (TCE) is derived for the skewed general...

This paper addresses one of the main challenges faced by insurance companies and risk management departments, namely, how to develop standardised framework for measuring risks of underlying portfolios and in particular, how to most reliably estimate loss severity distribution from historical...

The problem of risk portfolio optimization with translation-invariant and positive-homogeneous risk measures, which includes value-at-risk (VaR) and tail conditional expectation (TCE), leads to the problem of minimizing a combination of a linear functional and a square root of a quadratic...
