We demonstrate how a mixture of two SEP3 densities (skewed exponential power distribution of Fernández et al., 1995) can model the conditional forecasting of VaR and CVaR to efficiently cover market risk at regulatory levels of 1% and 2.5%, as well as at the additional 5% level. Our data...

We model the new quantitative aspects of market risk management for banks that Basel established in 2016 and came into effect in January 2019. Market risk is measured by Conditional Value at Risk (CVaR) or Expected Shortfall at a confidence level of 97.5%. The regulatory backtest remains largely...

Our data, relating to a period of extreme market turmoil, show typical leptokurtosis and skewness, leading us to consider the skewed exponential power distribution of Fernández et al. (1995), referred to as the SEP3. We demonstrate that the conditional forecasting of VaR and CVaR, made up of a...
