Bankruptcy and delisting due to other failures are two closely related yet sharply different distress events. Using a state-of-the-art adaptive Lasso variable selection method, we identify two different models for bankruptcy risk and other-failure risk. Both selected models gain better...

This study assesses the global economic consequences of climate-related risk in three broad areas: (1) the macroeconomic impacts of physical climate risk due to chronic climate change associated with global temperature increases and climate-related extreme shocks; (2) the macroeconomic effects...

In this paper, we evaluate the marginal predictive content of a variety of new business conditions and economic uncertainty indexes. Our indexes are defined as latent factors extracted from a high dimensional macroeconomic dataset (business conditions indexes) and as functions of predictive...

We perform a large-scale empirical study to compare the forecasting performance of single-regime and Markov-switching GARCH (MSGARCH) models from a risk management perspective. We find that, for daily, weekly, and ten-day equity log-returns, MSGARCH models yield more accurate Value-at-Risk,...

Over the last few years, Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies have attracted the interest of many investors, practitioners and researchers. However, little attention has been paid to the predictability of their risk measures. In this paper, we compare the predictability of the one-step-ahead...

The GARCH(1,1) model and its extensions have become a standard econometric tool for modeling volatility dynamics of financial returns and portfolio risk. In this paper, we propose an adjustment of GARCH implied conditional value-at-risk and expected shortfall forecasts that exploits the...

Wir beschäftigen uns mit dem Auftreten von Autokorrelationseffekten bei der Messung langfristiger Markrpreisrisiken. Dazu diskutieren wir zwei verbreitete Methoden der Value at Risk (VaR) Schätzung, nämlich die Historische Simulation und die Wurzel-t-Regel. Beide Verfahren werden aufgrund...

The GARCH(1,1) model and its extensions have become a standard econometric tool for modeling volatility dynamics of financial returns and port-folio risk. In this paper, we propose an adjustment of GARCH implied conditional value-at-risk and expected shortfall forecasts that exploits the...

This paper quantifies how variation in real economic activity and inflation in the U.S. influenced the market prices of level, slope, and curvature risks in U.S. Treasury markets. We develop a novel arbitrage-free dynamic term structure model in which bond investment decisions are influenced by...

The rapid development of artificial intelligence methods contributes to their wide applications for forecasting various financial risks in recent years. This study introduces a novel explainable case-based reasoning (CBR) approach without a requirement of rich expertise in financial risk....
