3. 12. Accuracy of Risk Measures For Black Swan Events

   University essay from KTH/Matematisk statistik

   Author : Viktor Barry; [2021]
   Keywords : Black swans; value at risk; conditional value at risk; monte carlo simulation; financial mathematics; risk analysis; financial risk; Black Swan; value at risk; conditional value at risk; monte carlo-simulering; finansiell matematik; riskanalys; finansiell risk;

   Abstract : This project aims to analyze the risk measures Value-at-Risk and Conditional-Value-at-Risk for three stock portfolios with the purpose of evaluating each method's accuracy in modelling Black Swan events. This is achieved by utilizing a parametric approach in the form of a modified (C)VaR with a Cornish-Fisher expansion, a historic approach with a time series spanning ten years and a Markov Monte Carlo simulation modeled with a Brownian motion.
