In this paper we propose a new measure for systemic risk: the Financial Risk Meter (FRM). This measure is based on the penalization parameter () of a linear quantile lasso regression. The FRM is calculated by taking the average of the penalization parameters over the 100 largest US publicly...

A system of risk factors necessarily involves systemic risk. The analysis of systemic risk is in the focus of recent econometric analysis and uses tail event and network based techniques. Here we bring tail event and network dynamics together into one context. In order to pursue such joint...

In order to integrate and facilitate the research, calculation and analysis methods around the Financial Risk Meter (FRM) project, the R package RiskAnalytics has been developed. Its main goal is to provide data processing and parallelized quantile lasso regression methods for risk analysis...

A factor augmented dynamic model for analysing tail behaviour of high dimensional time series is proposed. As a first step, the tail event driven latent factors are extracted. In the second step, a VAR (Vectorautoregression model) is carried out to analyse the interaction between these factors...
