重尾条件下的风险估计与回测

Estimating and backtesting risk under heavy tails

Marcin Pitera, Thorsten Schmidt

摘要:

虽然风险估计是银行和保险日常业务中的一个重要问题,但许多现有的插件估计程序存在不必要的偏差。这往往会导致低估风险,并对回测结果产生负面影响,特别是在小样本情况下。在这篇文章中,我们表明,估计偏差和回测之间的联系可以追溯到风险措施和相应的性能指标之间的双重关系,并讨论这在风险价值,预期损失和预期的风险价值。受插件程序一致低估风险的启发,我们提出了一种新的偏差校正算法,并展示了如何将其应用于广义Pareto分布的i.i.d.。设置并映射到GARCH(1,1)时间序列。特别是,我们表明,我们的算法的应用程序导致获得的效率时,重尾或异方差存在的数据。

英文摘要:

While the estimation of risk is an important question in the daily business of banking and insurance, many existing plug-in estimation procedures suffer from an unnecessary bias. This often leads to the underestimation of risk and negatively impacts backtesting results, especially in small sample cases. In this article we show that the link between estimation bias and backtesting can be traced back to the dual relationship between risk measures and the corresponding performance measures, and discuss this in reference to value-at-risk, expected shortfall and expectile value-at-risk. Motivated by the consistent underestimation of risk by plug-in procedures, we propose a new algorithm for bias correction and show how to apply it for generalized Pareto distributions to the i.i.d.\ setting and to a GARCH(1,1) time series. In particular, we show that the application of our algorithm leads to gain in efficiency when heavy tails or heteroscedasticity exists in the data.
