In this paper we propose a new measure for systemic risk: the Financial Risk Meter (FRM). This measure is based on the … parameters over the 100 largest US publicly traded financial institutions. We demonstrate the suitability of this risk measure by … comparing the proposed FRM to other measures for systemic risk, such as VIX, SRISK and Google Trends. We find that mutual …

This paper evaluates the model risk of models used for forecasting systemic and market risk. Model risk, which is the … periods, the underlying risk forecast models produce similar risk readings; hence, model risk is typically negligible. However … the reliability of risk readings. Finally, particular conclusions on the underlying reasons for the high model risk and …

We propose the realized systemic risk beta as a measure for financial companies' contribution to systemic risk given … network interdependence between firms' tail risk exposures. Conditional on statistically pre-identified network spillover … effects and market as well as balance sheet information, we define the realized systemic risk beta as the total time …

This paper revisits the performance of frequently used risk forecasting methods, such as the Value-at-Risk models. The …

challenges in terms of implementation, risk quantification and impacts on capital requirements. This paper first suggests an … risk capital and presents an illustration applied to an option position. Second, it proposes a methodology to estimate the …

of risk, both being associated to the stresses supported by the socio-economic system. We propose instruments for … resilience build-up and management based on a novel classification of risk and resilience management regimes corresponding to the …

For fitting the loss severity distribution, several approaches have been … objective of this paper is to understand the impact of model uncertainty on the value-at-risk (VaR) estimators. To accomplish … that, we take the bank's perspective and study a single risk. Under this simplified scenario we can solve the problem …

The interaction of capital and risk for trading and treasury units is of primary interest in the corporate governance … of banks as it links operational profitability and strategic risk management. During the financial crisis, several banks …' trading units suffered significantly higher losses than their risk capital charged based on value-at-risk constraints. There …

The Financial Risk Meter (FRM) is an established mechanism that, based on conditional Value at Risk (VaR) ideas, yields … insight into the dynamics of network risk. Originally, the FRM has been composed via Lasso based quantile regression, but we … coherent and multivariate tail risk indicator conditional expectile-based VaR (CoEVaR) can be derived, which is sensitive to …
