Combined with the modified CoVaR methodology and … estimation of the dependence structures through vine copula modeling, we empirically investigate systemic risk in 10 S&P 500 …

We propose a measure for systemic risk: CoVaR, the value at risk (VaR) of the financial system conditional on … institutions being under distress. We define an institution's contribution to systemic risk as the difference between CoVaR … leverage, size, and maturity mismatch predict systemic risk contribution.
