DoubleDecay: Computes a double-decay covariance matrix.

Description Usage Arguments Value Author(s) References

Description

This function computes a double-decay covariance matrix for the risk drivers provided, as described in A. Meucci, "Personalized Risk Management: Historical Scenarios with Fully Flexible Probabilities" GARP Risk Professional, Dec 2010, p 47-51

Usage

1
  DoubleDecay(X, lmd_c, lmd_s)

Arguments

X

matrix representing the risk drivers.

lmd_c

numeric representing the low decay (long half-life) for the correlations.

lmd_s

numeric representing the high decay (short half-life) for the volatilities.

Value

m matrix of zeros, representing the expectation of the risk drivers.

S matrix representing the double-decay estimation for the correlation matrix of the risk drivers.
