Abstract

A comparative analysis of the advanced methodologies used by the banking industry for measuring the total economic capital underlines the superiority of the top-down technique based on Monte Carlo simulation and Gaussian copula.This model is particularly suited to consider the empirical characteristics of the loss distributions associated to individual risks and the dependence structure of the relevant and quantifiable risks.
