Value-at-Risk Estimation: A Copula-GARCH Approach

The thesis was published by Sørensen, Kirstine Lykke, in January 2023, Aalborg University.

Abstract:

The thesis contains an analysis of the Value-at-Risk of a portfolio consisting of the 10 largest assets of the S&P500 index. The portfolio is constructed as a copula-GARCH model and the risk is evaluated based on Monte Carlo estimations. Moreover, a comparison is made with the parametric Value-at-Risk of the S&P500 Index.
