A generalized Neyman-Pearson lemma for hedge problems in incomplete markets

Rudloff, Birgit 07 October 2005 (has links) (PDF)
Some financial problems as minimizing the shortfall risk when hedging in incomplete markets lead to problems belonging to test theory. This paper considers a generalization of the Neyman-Pearson lemma. With methods of convex duality we deduce the structure of an optimal randomized test when testing a compound hypothesis against a simple alternative. We give necessary and sufficient optimality conditions for the problem.

Risques extrêmes en finance : analyse et modélisation / Financial extreme risks : analysis and modeling

Salhi, Khaled 05 December 2016 (has links)
Cette thèse étudie la gestion et la couverture du risque en s’appuyant sur la Value-at-Risk (VaR) et la Value-at-Risk Conditionnelle (CVaR), comme mesures de risque. La première partie propose un modèle d’évolution de prix que nous confrontons à des données réelles issues de la bourse de Paris (Euronext PARIS). Notre modèle prend en compte les probabilités d’occurrence des pertes extrêmes et les changements de régimes observés sur les données. Notre approche consiste à détecter les différentes périodes de chaque régime par la construction d’une chaîne de Markov cachée et à estimer la queue de distribution de chaque régime par des lois puissances. Nous montrons empiriquement que ces dernières sont plus adaptées que les lois normales et les lois stables. L’estimation de la VaR est validée par plusieurs backtests et comparée aux résultats d’autres modèles classiques sur une base de 56 actifs boursiers. Dans la deuxième partie, nous supposons que les prix boursiers sont modélisés par des exponentielles de processus de Lévy. Dans un premier temps, nous développons une méthode numérique pour le calcul de la VaR et la CVaR cumulatives. Ce problème est résolu en utilisant la formalisation de Rockafellar et Uryasev, que nous évaluons numériquement par inversion de Fourier. Dans un deuxième temps, nous nous intéressons à la minimisation du risque de couverture des options européennes, sous une contrainte budgétaire sur le capital initial. En mesurant ce risque par la CVaR, nous établissons une équivalence entre ce problème et un problème de type Neyman-Pearson, pour lequel nous proposons une approximation numérique s’appuyant sur la relaxation de la contrainte / This thesis studies the risk management and hedging, based on the Value-at-Risk (VaR) and the Conditional Value-at-Risk (CVaR) as risk measures. The first part offers a stocks return model that we test in real data from NSYE Euronext. Our model takes into account the probability of occurrence of extreme losses and the regime switching observed in the data. Our approach is to detect the different periods of each regime by constructing a hidden Markov chain and estimate the tail of each regime distribution by power laws. We empirically show that powers laws are more suitable than Gaussian law and stable laws. The estimated VaR is validated by several backtests and compared to other conventional models results on a basis of 56 stock market assets. In the second part, we assume that stock prices are modeled by exponentials of a Lévy process. First, we develop a numerical method to compute the cumulative VaR and CVaR. This problem is solved by using the formalization of Rockafellar and Uryasev, which we numerically evaluate by Fourier inversion techniques. Secondly, we are interested in minimizing the hedging risk of European options under a budget constraint on the initial capital. By measuring this risk by CVaR, we establish an equivalence between this problem and a problem of Neyman-Pearson type, for which we propose a numerical approximation based on the constraint relaxation

Statistical Inference

Chou, Pei-Hsin 26 June 2008 (has links)
In this paper, we will investigate the important properties of three major parts of statistical inference: point estimation, interval estimation and hypothesis testing. For point estimation, we consider the two methods of finding estimators: moment estimators and maximum likelihood estimators, and three methods of evaluating estimators: mean squared error, best unbiased estimators and sufficiency and unbiasedness. For interval estimation, we consider the the general confidence interval, confidence interval in one sample, confidence interval in two samples, sample sizes and finite population correction factors. In hypothesis testing, we consider the theory of testing of hypotheses, testing in one sample, testing in two samples, and the three methods of finding tests: uniformly most powerful test, likelihood ratio test and goodness of fit test. Many examples are used to illustrate their applications.
