This paper derives -- considering a Gaussian setting -- closed form solutions of the statistics that Adrian and Brunnermeier (2010) and Acharya et al. (2009) have suggested as measures of systemic risk to be attached to individual banks. The statistics equal the product of statistic specific...

With the Great Recession and the regulatory reform that followed, the search for reliable means to capture systemic risk and to detect macrofinancial problems has become a central concern. In the United States, this concern has been institutionalized through the Financial Stability Oversight...

Recent literature has proposed new methods for measuring the systemic risk of financial institutions based on observed stock returns. In this paper we examine the reliability and robustness of such risk measures, focusing on CoVaR, marginal expected shortfall, and option-based tail risk...
