Risk Quantification for Stock Portfolios under the T-Copula Model

Description

This package can estimate the tail loss probabilities and conditional excess for a stock portfolio. The log-returns are assumed to follow a t-copula model with generalized hyperbolic or t marginals.

Details

To simulate the tailloss probabilities of a portfolio for which the parameters of the t-copula model with generalized hyperbolic or t marginals are available the following two functions can be used.

SISTCopula() is the name of the function that uses stratified importance sampling (SIS) to estimate a single or several tailloss probabilities and the corresponding conditional excess in a very efficient way.

NVTCopula() estimates the same quantities using naive simulation (without variance reduction).
