The identification of tail (in)dependencies has drawn major attention in empirical financial studies. We concern on the structure of dependence which refers to dependence as symmetric or asymmetric, tail-dependent or tail-independent. We present the proper procedure of analysis dependence structure between some financial instruments. Our empirical results demonstrate different tail dependence structures underlying various global financial markets.

The aim of the presented study was to assess the quality of VaR forecasts in various states of the economic situation. Two approaches based on the extreme value theory were compared: Block Maxima and the Peaks Over Threshold. Forecasts were made on the daily closing prices of 10 major indices in European countries, divided into two groups: emerging countries (Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Lithuania, Latvia, Poland, Slovakia and Hungary) and developed countries (England, France and Germany). Three states of economic situation were analysed: the pre-crisis (2007), the crisis (2008) and the post-crisis (2009) period as out-of-sample. The main conclusion obtained is the too slow process of adapting static EVT-based forecasts to market movements. While in the pre-crisis period the results were satisfactory, in the period of crisis VaR forecasts were too often exceeded.

Estimation of Value at Risk: extreme value and and robust approaches

The large portfolios of traded assets held by many financial institutions have made the measurement of market risk a necessity. In practice, VaR measures are computed for several holding periods and confidence levels. A key issue in implementing VaR and related risk measures is to obtain accurate estimates for the tails of the conditional profit and loss distribution at the relevant horizons. VaR forecasts can be heavily affected by a few influential points, especially when long forecast horizons are considered. Robustness can be enhanced by fitting a generalized Pareto distribution to the tails of the distribution of the residual and sampling tail residuals from this density. However, to ensure a sufficiently large breakdown point for the estimator of the generalized Pareto tails, robust estimation is needed (see Dell’Aquila, Ronnchetti, 2006). The aim of the paper is to compare selected approaches to computing Value at Risk. We consider classical and robust conditional (GARCH) and unconditional (EVT) semi-nonparametric models where tail events are modeled using the generalized Pareto distribution. We wish to answer the question of whether the robust semi-nonparametric procedure generates more accurate VaRs than the classical approach does.

Background: The concept of value at risk gives estimation of the maximum loss of financial position at a given time for a given probability. The motivation for this analysis lies in the desire to devote necessary attention to risks in Montenegro, and to approach to quantifying and managing risk more thoroughly. Objectives: This paper considers adequacy of the most recent approaches for quantifying market risk, especially of methods that are in the basis of extreme value theory, in Montenegrin emerging market before and during the global financial crisis. In particular, the purpose of the paper is to investigate whether extreme value theory outperforms econometric and quantile evaluation of VaR in emerging stock markets such as Montenegrin market. Methods/Approach: Daily return of Montenegrin stock market index MONEX20 is analyzed for the period January, 2004 - February, 2014. Value at Risk results based on GARCH models, quantile estimation and extreme value theory are compared. Results: Results of the empirical analysis show that the assessments of Value at Risk based on extreme value theory outperform econometric and quantile evaluations. Conclusions: It is obvious that econometric evaluations (ARMA(2,0)- GARCH(1,1) and RiskMetrics) proved to be on the lower bound of possible Value at Risk movements. Risk estimation on emerging markets can be focused on methodology using extreme value theory that is more sophisticated as it has been proven to be the most cautious model when dealing with turbulent times and financial turmoil.

Since 1982 the term “financial econometrics” has been present in the enormous literature that covers both methodologies and empirical analyses of the processes observed on the financial markets. The purpose of the presented paper is to indicate the milestones in financial econometrics and their usefulness and to show the contribution of the research from Poland into its development. ‘Pure’ financial econometrics methods are of special interest. The paper is directed at reviewing the recent methodologies and their applications. We focused on the contribution of Polish researchers into financial econometrics over the years, considering both the methodology and the applications. Some of the indicated publications are cited quite often, including international quotations, others are not very popular due to the language of the publication or the local reach of the journal, although many of them can be considered in line with the achievements that are presented in international empirical publications.
