COMPUTING VaR AND AVaR IN INFINITELY DIVISIBLE DISTRIBUTIONS

Abstract: In this paper we derive closed-form solutions for the cumulative distribution function and the average value-at-risk for five subclasses of the infinitely divisible distributions: classical tempered stable distribution, Kim–Rachev distribution, modified tempered stable distribution, normal tempered stable distribution, and rapidly decreasing tempered stable distribution. We present empirical evidence using the daily performance of the S&P 500 for the period January 2, 1997 through December 29, 2006.

2000 AMS Mathematics Subject Classification: 60E07, 91B28.

Keywords and phrases: Tempered stable distribution, infinitely divisible distribution, VaR, CVaR, AVaR.
