Zajištění Value at Risk a podmíněného Value at Risk portfolia pomocí kvantilových autoregresivních metod / Application of quantile autoregressive models in minimum Value at Risk and Conditional Value at Risk hedging

Futures contracts represent a suitable instrument for hedging. One conse- quence of their standardized nature is the presence of basis risk. In order to mitigate it an agent might aim to minimize Value at Risk or Expected Shortfall. Among numerous approaches to their modelling, CAViaR models which build upon quantile regression are appealing due to the limited set of assumptions and decent empirical performance. We propose alternative specifications for CAViaR model - power and exponential CAViaR, and an alternative, flexible way of computing Expected Shortfall within CAViaR framework - Implied Expectile Level. Empirical analysis suggests that ex- ponential CAViaR yields competitive results both in Value at Risk and Ex- pected Shortfall modelling and in subsequent Value at Risk and Expected Shortfall hedging. 1
