Despite well-known shortcomings as a risk measure, Value-at-Risk (VaR) is still the industry and regulatory standard for the calculation of risk capital in banking and insurance. This paper is concerned with the numerical estimation of the VaR for a portfolio position as a function of different...

A Fréchet class collects all multivariate joint distribution functions that have the same marginals. Members of a Fréchet class only differ with respect to the interdependence between their marginals. In this paper, I study orders of interdependence on a Fréchet class using two multivariate...

All the n possible returns on a financial asset are the components of an element of a linear space over R. This paper shows how to transfer all these n possible returns on a one-dimensional straight line. In this research work, two or more than two financial assets are studied. More than two...

In order to analyze the pricing of portfolio credit risk – as revealed by tranche spreads of a popular credit default swap (CDS) index – we extract risk-neutral probabilities of default (PDs) and physical asset return correlations from single-name CDS spreads. The time profile and overall...

For example, if the copula density is sufficiently smooth in the region where we wish to … if the marginals are close to being independent. We suggest using wavelet estimators to approximate the copula density …
