PELVE: Probability Equivalent Level of VaR and ES
PELVE:VaR 与 ES 的概率等价水平
In the recent Fundamental Review of the Trading Book (FRTB), the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision proposed the shift from the 99% Value-at-Risk (VaR) to the 97.5% Expected Shortfall (ES) for internal models in market risk assessment. Inspired by the above transition, we introduce a new distributional index, the probability equivalence level of VaR and ES (PELVE), which identifies the balancing point for the equivalence between VaR and ES. PELVE enjoys many desirable…
