fmEsDecomp: Decompose ES into individual factor contributions
In factorAnalytics: Factor Analytics

Description Usage Arguments Details Value Author(s) References See Also Examples

Compute the factor contributions to Expected Tail Loss or Expected Shortfall (ES) of assets' returns based on Euler's theorem, given the fitted factor model. The partial derivative of ES with respect to factor beta is computed as the expected factor return given fund return is less than or equal to its value-at-risk (VaR). Option to choose between non-parametric and Normal.

fmEsDecomp(object, ...)

## S3 method for class 'tsfm'
fmEsDecomp(object, p = 0.95, type = c("np", "normal"), ...)

## S3 method for class 'sfm'
fmEsDecomp(object, p = 0.95, type = c("np", "normal"), ...)

`object`	fit object of class `tsfm`, `sfm` or `ffm`.
`...`	other optional arguments passed to `quantile`.
`p`	confidence level for calculation. Default is 0.95.
`type`	one of "np" (non-parametric) or "normal" for calculating VaR. Default is "np".

The factor model for an asset's return at time t has the form

R(t) = beta'f(t) + e(t) = beta.star'f.star(t)

where, beta.star=(beta,sig.e) and f.star(t)=[f(t)',z(t)]'. By Euler's theorem, the ES of the asset's return is given by:

ES.fm = sum(cES_k) = sum(beta.star_k*mES_k)

where, summation is across the K factors and the residual, cES and mES are the component and marginal contributions to ES respectively. The marginal contribution to ES is defined as the expected value of F.star, conditional on the loss being less than or equal to VaR.fm. This is estimated as a sample average of the observations in that data window.

A list containing

`ES.fm`	length-N vector of factor model ES of N-asset returns.
`n.exceed`	length-N vector of number of observations beyond VaR for each asset.
`idx.exceed`	list of numeric vector of index values of exceedances.
`mES`	N x (K+1) matrix of marginal contributions to VaR.
`cES`	N x (K+1) matrix of component contributions to VaR.
`pcES`	N x (K+1) matrix of percentage component contributions to VaR.

Where, K is the number of factors and N is the number of assets.
