Steps in applying extreme value theory to finance : a review / by Younes Bensalah. : FB3-2/100-20E-PDF
This paper is organized as follows. Section 2 introduces some theoretical results concerning the estimation of the asymptotic distribution of the extreme observations. Section 3 describes some data sampling problems, the choice of the threshold (or beginning of the tail), and parameter and quantile estimation. Section 4 estimates an extreme VaR and Section 5 describes the limitations of the theory. Section 6 provides a complete example of EVT techniques applied to a series of daily exchange rates of Canadian/U.S. dollars over a 5-year period (1995-2000). Section 7 concludes.--Introduction
