基于重要抽样的风险测度的有效计算--重尾情形

Efficient calculation of risk measures by importance sampling -- the heavy tailed case

Henrik Hult, Jens Svensson

摘要:

使用标准蒙特卡罗模拟计算极端分位数和基于尾部的风险度量可能效率低下。重要性抽样提供了一种加速计算的方法。我们表明,重要性抽样算法,设计有效的尾部概率估计,可以显着提高蒙特卡罗估计的尾部为基础的风险措施。在重尾情形下,当随机变量服从正态分布时,我们给出了风险度量(如风险价值和期望损失)重要抽样估计的渐近相对误差为小的充分条件.数值算例说明了结果。

英文摘要:

Computation of extreme quantiles and tail-based risk measures using standard Monte Carlo simulation can be inefficient. A method to speed up computations is provided by importance sampling. We show that importance sampling algorithms, designed for efficient tail probability estimation, can significantly improve Monte Carlo estimators of tail-based risk measures. In the heavy-tailed setting, when the random variable of interest has a regularly varying distribution, we provide sufficient conditions for the asymptotic relative error of importance sampling estimators of risk measures, such as Value-at-Risk and expected shortfall, to be small. The results are illustrated by some numerical examples.
