Forecasting and Backtesting Gradient Allocations of Expected Shortfall

2024-01-22 · Takaaki Koike, Cathy W. S. Chen, Edward M. H. Lin

Capital allocation is a procedure for quantifying the contribution of each source of risk to aggregated risk. The gradient allocation rule, also known as the Euler principle, is a prevalent rule of capital allocation under which the allocated capital captures the diversification benefit of the marginal risk as a component of overall risk. This research concentrates on Expected Shortfall (ES) as a regulatory standard and focuses on the gradient allocations of ES, also called ES contributions (ESCs). We present the comprehensive treatment of backtesting the tuple of ESCs in the framework of the traditional and comparative backtests based on the concepts of joint identifiability and multi-objective elicitability. For robust forecast evaluation against the choice of scoring function, we also extend the Murphy diagram, a graphical tool to check whether one forecast dominates another under a class of scoring functions, to the case of ESCs. Finally, leveraging the recent concept of multi-objective elicitability, we propose a novel semiparametric model for forecasting dynamic ESCs based on a compositional regression model. In an empirical analysis of stock returns we evaluate and compare a variety of models for forecasting dynamic ESCs and demonstrate the outstanding performance of the proposed model.

Fair Estimation of Capital Risk Allocation

2019-02-26 · Tomasz R. Bielecki, Igor Cialenco, Marcin Pitera, Thorsten Schmidt

In this paper we develop a novel methodology for estimation of risk capital allocation. The methodology is rooted in the theory of risk measures. We work within a general, but tractable class of law-invariant coherent ri…

Expected Shortfall is jointly elicitable with Value at Risk - Implications for backtesting

2015-07-12

In this note, we comment on the relevance of elicitability for backtesting risk measure estimates. In particular, we propose the use of Diebold-Mariano tests, and show how they can be implemented for Expected Shortfall (…

Backtesting Expected Shortfall: Accounting for both duration and severity with bivariate orthogonal polynomials

2024-05-03 · Sullivan Hué, Christophe Hurlin, Yang Lu

We propose an original two-part, duration-severity approach for backtesting Expected Shortfall (ES). While Probability Integral Transform (PIT) based ES backtests have gained popularity, they have yet to allow for separa…

What is the best risk measure in practice? A comparison of standard measures

2015-04-28

Expected Shortfall (ES) has been widely accepted as a risk measure that is conceptually superior to Value-at-Risk (VaR). At the same time, however, it has been criticised for issues relating to backtesting. In particular…
