The risk of a future payoff is commonly quantified by calculating the costs of a hedging portfolio such that the resulting position is acceptable, i.e. that it passes a capital adequacy test. A multi-asset risk measure describes the minimal external capital which has to be raised into multiple...

We propose new Unconditional, Independence and Conditional Coverage VaR-forecast backtests for the case of annuity pricing under a Bayesian framework that significantly minimise the direct and indirect effects of $p$-hacking or other biased outcomes in decision-making, in general. As a...

Risk capital allocations (RCAs) are an important tool in quantitative risk management, where they are utilized to, e.g., gauge the profitability of distinct business units, determine the price of a new product, and conduct the marginal economic capital analysis. Nevertheless, the notion of RCA...

This paper uses a consumption-based dynamic quantile preference model to estimate the elasticity of intertemporal substitution (EIS) across different levels of risk attitude. In the quantile model, the risk attitude is captured by the quantile and is, therefore, separable from the EIS. This is...

This paper investigates whether multivariate crash risk (MCRASH), defined as exposure to extreme realizations of multiple systematic factors, is priced in the cross-section of expected stock returns. We derive an extended linear model with a positive premium for MCRASH and we empirically confirm...

This paper extends traditional payment system simulation analysis to counterparty liquidity risk exposures. The used stress test scenario corresponds to the counterparty stress scenario applied in the BCBS standard "Monitoring tools for intraday liquidity management" (BIS, 2013). This stress...
