TY - JOUR TI - Valor en Riesgo: Evaluación del desempeño de diferentes metodologías para 7 países latinoamericanos PB - Universidad Icesi PY - 2006 AB - This paper evaluates the performance of different parametric and semiparametric methods, as well as the historical simulation method, to estimate the nexttrading- day VaR of 7 representative portfolios for 7 different Latin American countries. It is found that there is not a single model that outperforms the others. For a 95% confident level, parametric models with EWMA and TGARCH specification to update the volatility outperforms the others. On the other hand, those models over-estimate the “true” VaR for a 99% confidence level.
