Abstract

In this paper, we propose an explicit estimation of Value-at-Risk (VaR) and Expected Shortfall (ES) for linear portfolios when the risk factors change with a convex mixture of generalized Laplace distributions (M-GLD). We introduce the dynamics Delta-GLD-VaR, Delta-GLD-ES, Delta-MGLD-VaR and Delta-MGLD-ES, by using conditional correlation multivariate GARCH. The generalized Laplace distribution impose less restrictive assumptions during estimation that should improve the precision of the VaR and ES through the varying shape and fat tails of the risk factors in relation with the historical sample data. We also suggested some areas of application to measure price risk in agriculture, risk management and financial portfolio optimization.
