Abstract: |
In the present article we conduct an
inquiry into several different risk measures, illustrating their advantages
and disadvantages, regulatory aspects and apply them on a stock index on a
developed market: the DAX index. Specifically we are talking about Value at
Risk (VaR), which is now considered a classical
measure, its improved version, the Expected Shortfall (ES) and the very novel
Entropic Value at Risk (EVaR).
The applied computation methods are yielding robust results. The obtained
values are put into the context of the relevant literature, and pertinent
conclusions are formulated, especially regarding regulatory applications. |
