Since 2008’s financial crisis, risk management has focused in extreme market movements, i.e. low probability but high impact financial returns. This requires to precisely know the far tails of the probability distribution function underlying the returns’ generation process. Extreme values...

We comprehensively investigate the usefulness of tail risk measures proposed in the literature. We evaluate both the statistical and the economic validity of the measures. The option-implied measure of Bollerslev and Todorov (2011b) (BT11Q) performs the best overall. While some other tail risk...

This study provides an overview of the model evolution and research trends in the field of financial and risk modelling by applying a bibliometric approach from 2008–2019 and an overall citation network analysis. We present a content analysis of contributing authors, countries, journals, main...

The paper develops a tail risk forecasting model that incorporates the wealth of economic and financial information available to risk managers. The approach can be viewed as a regularized extension of the two-stage GARCH-EVT model of McNeil and Frey (2000) where we permit a time-varying...

We show that the Truncated Realized Variance (TRV) of a semimartingale asset price converges to zero when observations are contaminated by microstructure noises. Under the additive iid noise assumption, a central limit theorem is also proved. In consequence it is possible to construct a feasible...
