Tail risk refers to the possibility that a rare event would adversely affect the value of a portfolio in a significant manner. It became much more relevant due to recent periods of strong market turbulence.We describe how to quantify such risk, which tail risk protection strategies were...

Most banks employ historical simulation for Value-at-Risk (VaR) calculations, where VaR is computed from a lower … faster than MC simulation and which avoids the single-sample bias of historical simulation. Ran- dom orthogonal matrix (ROM …) simulation is a fast matrix-based simulation method that applies directly to an historical sample, or to a parametric …

Adaptive Polar Sampling (APS) is proposed as a Markov chain Monte Carlomethod for Bayesian analysis of models with ill-behaved posteriordistributions. In order to sample efficiently from such a distribution,a location-scale transformation and a transformation to polarcoordinates are used. After...

The most recent financial crisis unveiled that liquidity risk is far more important and intricate than regulation have conceived. The shift from bank-based to market-based financial systems and from Deferred Net Systems to liquidity-demanding Real-Time Gross Settlement of payments explains some...
