Measuring Tail Risksq-fin.RM
Proposes a new tail risk measure based on the most probable maximum risk event size.
problem Current risk measures like VaR and ES are limited in their applicability and require specifying a confidence level.
method Develops a new risk measure called MPMR that does not require a confidence level and scales with the length of the time interval.
result The new risk measure, MPMR, scales with the number of observations by a power law, allowing for reliable estimations of long-term risks based on short-term estimations.
