Financial risk modeling

Entropic risk measure

In financial mathematics (concerned with mathematical modeling of financial markets), the entropic risk measure is a risk measure which depends on the risk aversion of the user through the exponential utility function. It is a possible alternative to other risk measures as value-at-risk or expected shortfall. It is a theoretically interesting measure because it provides different risk values for different individuals whose attitudes toward risk may differ. However, in practice it would be difficult to use since quantifying the risk aversion for an individual is difficult to do. The entropic risk measure is the prime example of a convex risk measure which is not coherent. Given the connection to utility functions, it can be used in utility maximization problems.

QRM L2-1: Risk Measures

Welcome to Quantitative Risk Management (QRM). In this lesson we introduce the axiomatic approach to risk measures. We give the definition of risk measure and we discuss what its uses for us are in terms of reserve capital quantification. We then define coherent and convex measures. The p

QRM L1-2: The dimensions of risk and friends

Welcome to Quantitative Risk Management (QRM). In this second video, we analyse the dimensions of risk. Risk is in fact an object that we need to consider from different points of view, and that sometimes we cannot even quantify. We will also discuss the importance of statistical thinking
