Abstract:

This thesis consists of three empirical essays on the Value-at-Risk (VaR) estimates. The first empirical study (Chapter 2) evaluates the performance of bank VaRs. The second empirical study (Chapter 3) investigates the predictive power of various VaR models using bank data. The third empirical study (Chapter 4) explores VaR estimates with high-frequency data. The first study examines the performance of VaR estimates at seven international banks from 2001 to 2012. Using statistical tests, we find that bank VaRs were conservatively estimated in pre-crisis and post-crisis periods. During financia

The financial crisis of 2007/2008 brought about a debate concerning the quality of risk management models, such as Value at Risk (VaR) models. Several studies have tried to make conclusions about multiple VaR models in periods around the crisis. The conclusions differ, but the Extreme Value Theory (EVT) is considered to be a good prediction model in times of unstable financial markets.

Value at Risk (VaR) models have gained increasing momentum in recent years. Market VaR is an important issue for banks since its adoption as a primary risk metric in the Basel Accords and the requirement that it is calculated on a daily basis. Credit risk modelling has become increasingly important to banks since the advent of Basel 11 which allows banks with sophisticated modelling techniques to use internal models for the purpose of calculating capital requirements. A high level of credit risk is often the key reason behind banks failing or experiencing severe difficulty. Conditional Value a

Abstract:

In this thesis we are interested in financial risk and the instrument we want to use is Value-at-Risk (VaR). VaR is the maximum loss over a given period of time at a given confidence level. Many definitions of VaR exist and some will be introduced throughout this thesis. There two main ways to measure risk and VaR: through volatility and through percentiles. Large volatility in financial returns implies greater probability of large losses, but also larger probability of large profits. Percentiles describe tail behaviour. The estimation of VaR is a complex task. It is important to know the

Abstract:

When measuring market risk, credit institutions and Alternative Investment Fund Managers may deviate from equally weighting historical data in their Value-at-Risk calculation and instead use an exponential time series weighting. The use of expo-nential weighting in the Value-at-Risk calculation is very popular because it takes into account changes in market volatility (immediately) and can therefore quickly adapt to VaR. In less volatile market phases, this leads to a reduction in VaR and thus to lower own funds requirements for credit institutions. However, in the ex-ponential weighting a hig

Value-at-Risk (VaR) models provide quantile forecasts for future returns. If a loss is greater than or equal to the corresponding VaR forecast, we have a breach. A VaR model is usually validated by considering realized breach sequences. Several statistical tests exist for this purpose, called backtests. This paper presents an extensive study of the statistical power for the most recognized backtests. We simulate returns and estimate VaR forecasts, resulting in breach sequences not satisfying the null hypothesis of the backtests. We apply the backtests on the data, and assess their ability to r

Usage of financial measurements that address the default probability of counterparties have been market practice for some time. Quantifying counterparty credit risk is usually done through the credit value adjustment which adjusts the value from a risk-free value to a risky value. When quantifying the credit value adjustment there is an important assumption that the financial exposure (value) and probability of counterparty default are independent variables. Wrong-way risk implies a relationship where exposure and probability of default are increasing together. It is an unfavourable relationsh

Abstract:

In financial risk management it is essential to be able to model dependence in markets and portfolios in an accurate and efficient way. A high positive dependence between assets in a portfolio can be devastating, especially in times of crises, since losses will most likely occur at the same time in all assets for such a portfolio. The dependence is therefore directly linked to the risk of the portfolio. The risk can be estimated by several different risk measures, for example Value-at-Risk and Expected shortfall.

Our empirical evidences indicate that banks with higher quality of risk disclosure and better risk management show lower VaR. Regarding the bank corporate governance, banks with higher board compensations and independent board ratio would significantly reduce bank’s downside risk while banks with larger boards would increase bank

碩士<br>東吳大學<br>經濟學系<br>89<br>Abstract The level of market risk is expressed by variety in most financial theories. However what variety can be is only the entire scatter degree of financial variables. As for market risk , what scary most is not the fluctuation of daily financail variables but the influence which is not often caused in probabilty distribution while the financial market collapses. Market risk is not enough simlpy to be explained by variety. Therefore , in order to estimate market risk , it is necessary to present a risk-measured index which shows the most probable

Abstract:

碩士<br>國立暨南國際大學<br>國際企業學系<br>91<br>Value-at-Risk (VaR) models have been radically developed to measure the market risk. In this paper, we apply both hypothesis-testing and relative performance criteria to evaluate different VaR models. The results suggest that both SWARCH-L model and adjusted-historical simulation model have better performance across all criteria. The strength of SWARCH approach is its efficiency to track the evolution of risk in terms of its highest correlation, only it tends to produce too few exceptions. For future researches, we suggest it may be more accurate to allow for

Abstract:

Dissertação de mestrado em Finanças<br>In the last decades, Value-at-Risk has become one of the most popular risk measurements techniques in the financial world. However, VaR models are only useful if they predict risk accurately. In order to evaluate the quality of the VaR estimates, it is necessary to perform appropriate and diverse backtesting methodologies. In this study I test VaR estimates obtained from an unconditional parametric models (student-t generalized error, skewed student-t, pareto, and Weibull distributions) for four stock market indexes (DJIA, SP-500, Nikkei 225 and Dax

The change of credit rating exists correlation between assets. That is why it needs to consider the correlation of credit rate change of the portfolio while evaluating the credit risk. But the existed methods could not provide the influence of group at some smaller region, like Taiwan. The purpose of this study is to verify if the group correlation will influence the cor-relation of the credit rate ch

If the performance of delta method does not perform well enough, the second order Taylor’s expansion, called delta-gamma method, can be employed. There are two potential errors implied in the delta approximation and delta-gamma approximation. First, the error of distribution assumption will occur when the distribution of underlying is not a no

碩士<br>國立高雄應用科技大學<br>金融資訊研究所<br>95<br>The foreign exchange market is the biggest financial market in the world. The enterprise, having open foreign exchange position, always care the risk being caused by the fluctuation of exchange rate. The risk of exchange rate is caused by hedging incompletely. The careless and indiscreet in the risk of exchange rate possibly can bring about the global enterprise to have the significant loss and to reduce the competitive ability. Therefore it’s really important to construct the risk management system and to evaluate effectively the risk of exchange rate .
