EVT-Based Estimation of Risk Capital and Convergence of High Quantiles
We discuss some issues regarding the accuracy of a quantile-based estimation of risk capital. In this context, extreme value theory (EVT) emerges naturally. The paper sheds some further light on the ongoing discussion concerning the use of a semi-parametric approach like EVT and the use of specific...
