Some Remarks on the Value-at-Risk and the Conditional Value-at-Risk
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compare the performance of the conditional value-at-risk (CVaR) and the value at risk (VaR) risk measures and make a comparison.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, an assessment of economic flood risk trends across Europe reveals high current and future stress on risk financing schemes, and the magnitude and distribution of losses can be contained by investing in flood protection, increasing insurance coverage or by expanding public compensation funds.
Book
Modeling, Measuring and Managing Risk
Georg Ch. Pflug,Werner Römisch +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors introduce the theory of risk measures in a mathematically sound way, and present properties, characterizations and representations of risk functionals for single-period and multi-period activities.
Journal ArticleDOI

Value-at-Risk in Portfolio Optimization: Properties and Computational Approach
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a method of calculating a portfolio that gives the optimal value-at-risk (VAR) among those which yield at least some specified expected return.
