Nonparametric Estimation of Expected Shortfall
The paper evaluates the properties of nonparametric estimators of the expected shortfall, an increasingly popular risk measure in financial risk management. It is found that the existing kernel estimator based on a single bandwidth does not offer variance reduction, which is surprising considering that kernel smoothing reduces the variance of estimators for the value at risk and the distributio...
متن کاملExpected shortfall estimation using kernel machines †
In this paper we study four kernel machines for estimating expected shortfall, which are constructed through combinations of support vector quantile regression (SVQR), restricted SVQR (RSVQR), least squares support vector machine (LS-SVM) and support vector expectile regression (SVER). These kernel machines have obvious advantages such that they achieve nonlinear model but they do not require t...
متن کاملA Global Optimization Heuristic for Portfolio Choice with VaR and Expected Shortfall
Constraints on downside risk, measured by shortfall probability, expected shortfall etc., lead to optimal asset allocations which differ from the mean-variance optimum. The resulting optimization problem can become quite complex as it exhibits multiple local extrema and discontinuities, in particular if we also introduce constraints restricting the trading variables to integers, constraints on ...
متن کاملNon - parametric Estimation of Operational Risk and Expected Shortfall
This paper proposes improvements to advanced measurement approach (AMA) to estimating operational risks, and applies the improved methods to US business losses categorised into five business lines and three event types operational losses. The AMA involves, among others, modelling a loss severity distribution and estimating the Expected Loss and the 99.9% operational value-at-risk (OpVaR). These...
متن کاملWeighted Nadaraya-Watson estimation of conditional expected shortfall
This paper addresses the problem of nonparametric estimation of the conditional expected shortfall (CES) which has gained popularity in financial risk management. We propose a new nonparametric estimator of the CES. The proposed estimator is defined as a conditional counterpart of the sample average estimator of the unconditional expected shortfall, where the empirical distribution function is ...
