Mathematical Conventions
We fix a probability space (Ω,F ,P) and a set of financial risksMdefined on this space. These risks are interpreted as portfolio orbalance sheet position losses over some fixed time horizon.We usually assume thatM is a linear space containingconstants, so that if L1,L2 ∈M,m ∈ R and k > 0 thenL1 + L2,L1 + m, kL1 ∈M.A risk measure is a mapping % :M→ R with the interpretationthat %(L) gives the amount of capital that is needed to back aposition with loss L. Examples of risk measures areValue-at-Risk (VaR), expected shortfall (ES).

Coherent Risk Measures
A coherent risk measure is a real-valued function % onM thatsatisfies the following 4 axioms:
1 Monotonicity. For two rvs with L1 ≥ L2 we have %(L1) ≥ %(L2).2 Subadditivity. For any L1, L2 we have %(L1 + L2) ≤ %(L1) + %(L2).
This is the most debated property. Necessary for followingreasons:
Reflects idea that risk can be reduced by diversification and that “amerger creates no extra risk".Makes decentralized risk management possible.If a regulator uses a non-subadditive risk measure, a financialinstitution could reduce risk capital by splitting into subsidiaries.

Axioms of Coherence II
3 Positive homogeneity. For k ≥ 0 we have that %(kL) = k%(L). Ifthere is no diversification we should have equality in subadditivityaxiom.
4 Translation invariance. For any a ∈ R we have that%(L + m) = %(L) + m.
Remarks:VaR is in general not coherent.ES (as we have defined it) is coherent.

Non-Coherence of VaR: an Example
Consider portfolio of 50 defaultable bonds with independent defaults.Default probability identical and equal to 2%. Current price of bondsequal to 95, face value equal to 100.
Portfolio A: buy 50 units of bond 1.Portfolio B : buy one unit of each bond.
Common sense. Portfolio B is less risky (better diversified) thanPortfolio A. This is wrong if we measure risk with VaR !Loss of each bond equals
Li := −(100(1− Yi ) + 95) = 100Yi − 5,
where Yi = 1 if default occurs, Yi = 0 else. Yi are iid Bernoulli(0.02).

Non-Coherence of VaR: an Example IIPortfolio A: L(A) = 50L1 and hence
VaR0.95(L(A)) = 50 VaR0.95(L1) = −250,
i.e. we may take 250 out of portfolio and still satisfy regulator.Portfolio B: L(B) =
∑50i=1 Li = 100
∑50i=1 Yi − 250 , and hence
VaRα(L(B)) = 100 qα

Inspection shows that q0.95(∑50
i=1 Yi ) = 3, so that VaR0.95(L(B)) = 50,i.e. extra capital is needed to hold the portfolio.
VaR0.95(L(B)) > VaR0.95(L(A))⇒ VaR0.95

Portfolios and Risk Factors
Recall that we usually relate financial values and losses tounderlying risk factors or risk drivers.Each L ∈M may be of the form L = `(X) for some underlyingrandom vector of risk factor changes X and some (generallynonlinear) function `, which we sometimes call the loss impactfunction.We will consider in particular the special case where the set oflosses are linear portfolios of risk factor changes

Spherical Distributions
A random vector X = (X1, . . . ,Xd )′ has a spherical distribution if
UX d= X for every orthogonal map U ∈ Rd×d
(i.e. a map satisfying UU ′ = U ′U = Id×d ).Characteristic function satisfies E(exp(it′X)) = ψ(t2
1 + · · ·+ t2d )

a′X d= ‖a‖X1
where‖a‖ =

A Useful Theorem
Theorem
Let X ∼ Ed (µ,Σ, ψ) and letM denote the linear portfolio set in (1).Let % be a positive-homogeneous and translation-invariant riskmeasure.
1 For any L = m + λ′X ∈M we have
%(L) = ‖A′λ‖%(Y ) + λ′µ + m
=√λ′Σλ%(Y ) + λ′µ + m
where AA′ = Σ and Y ∼ S1(ψ), i.e. a univariate sphericaldistribution (a distribution that is symmetric around 0) withgenerator ψ.
2 If %(Y ) ≥ 0 then % is subadditive onM. In particular VaRα issubadditive if α ≥ 0.5.

Proof
1 Part (1) follows from the highlighted property of spherical/ellipticaldistribution, and the assumed properties of the risk measure:
%(L) = %(m + λ′X ) = m + %(λ′X )
= m + %(λ′µ + ‖A′λ‖Y )
= m + λ′µ + %(‖A′λ‖Y )
= m + λ′µ + ‖A′λ‖%(Y )
2 This follows from the subadditivity of the Euclidean norm.

Two Corollaries for Aggregation
Assume µ = E(X ) which implies E(L) = m + λ′µ. (Up to nowwe had not assumed the finiteness of moments.)The theorem implies that
%(L− E(L)) = %(λ′(X − E(X ))) =√λ′Σλ%(Y ). (2)
We will use the Theorem to derive two simple Corollaries:1 The first will be relevant to the problem of aggregating several
portfolios.2 The second will be relevant to the problem of measuring portfolio
risk by aggregating stress tests.

Recall the formula (2) which stated that
%(L− E(L)) = %(λ′(X − E(X ))) =√λ′Σλ%(Y ).

Aggregation of Loss Distributions
Suppose that we apply the general principle that capital iscalculated using a positive-homogeneous, translation-invariantrisk measure % so that, for any L ∈M, the economic capital isgiven by
EC = %(L)− E(L).
Now consider an enterprise with d sub-units (business lines,portfolios of assets and liabilities). Each sub-unit generates aloss or (negative) change-in-value Li over given time horizon.The aggregate loss distribution is given by
Lagg = L1 + · · ·+ Ln .
Suppose that capital calculation is decentralized and eachsub-unit calculates economic capital ECi for its ownportfolio/activities.

Aggregation of Loss Distributions II
How should the aggregate capital ECagg be calculated?A possible answer is given by Corollary 1.
ECagg =
√√√√ n∑i=1
n∑j=1
ρ(L,Lj ) ECi ECj (3)
But note that this has been justified by two strong assumptions:1 Underlying elliptically distributed risk factors X .2 All portfolios are linear functions of risk factors.

Pragmatic Aggregation Rule
What happens if we use the aggregation rule (3) and theseassumptions do not hold?First the capital is calculated within each business unit byassuming a model for Li and computing ECi = %(Li )− E(Li ).Next the correlations ρ(Li ,Lj ) are determined.
Data may be sparse or unavailable and correlations might bechosen by “experts”.The correlations must form a positive semi-definite matrix to makeany kind of sense.If the distributions of Li and Lj are of different type, then there areadditional constraints on the possible correlations.
But ultimately the aggregate capital ECagg is fairly meaninglessand will generally not correspond to ρ(Lagg − E(Lagg)).

Limits on Attainable Correlations
(linear correlation = 1) ⇒ comonotonicitycomonotonicity 6⇒ (linear correlation = 1)
We can create models where individual risks are comonotonic(undiversifiable), but have an arbitrarily small correlation.For two given distributions, attainable correlations form asub-interval of [−1,1].Upper bound corresponds to comonotonicity, lower tocountermonotonicity.The theory goes back to [Höffding, 1940] and [Fréchet, 1957].

Conservative Upper Bounds for Capital?
Often it is argued that it is conservative to set ρ(Li ,Lj ) = 1 for allcorrelations in (3). This yields the aggregation rule
ECagg = EC1 + · · ·+ ECn . (4)
In order to be sure that this forms an upper bound for therequired capital under all possible distributions for (L1, . . . ,Ln) weshould base capital calculation on a coherent risk measure.Note that, for both VaR and ES, the formula (4) is the correctaggregation rule when L1, . . . ,Ln are comonotonic.But note that for a non-subadditive risk measure like VaR theremay be “worse” situations than comonotonicity. We may have

Aggregation of Stress Tests
A different approach to aggregation is applied in Solvency II inthe standard formula for the solvency capital requirement (SCR);see [CEIOPS, 2006, 2006], page 71, 98.In this approach the aggregation is across risk factors, notbusiness units.It is asumed that the loss distribution for the enterprise can bemodelled as L = `(X ) for a non-linear function ` and risk factorsX = (X1, . . . ,Xd )′. ` available in so-called model office software.Suppose that for each risk factor we compute
ECi = `(%(Xi )ei )− `(E(Xi )ei ) , (5)
the effect of a shock to risk factor i of size %(Xi ) relative to ashock of size E(Xi ), with all other factors unchanged.

EC =

ρij ECi ECj , (6)
where ρij are the correlations between the risk factors X .For example, in Solvency II, we typically use % = VaR0.995.This can be justified under the strong assumptions of ellipticalrisk factors and linear portfolios using Corollary 2.

When Aggregation of Stress Tests is Justified
Assume that L is an element of the linear portfolio spaceMin (1) for some fixed random vector X .Assume X ∼ Ed (µ,Σ, ψ).The function ` is given by `(x) = m + λ′x .In this case
ECi = `(%(Xi )ei )− `(E(Xi )ei ) = λi%(Xi − E(Xi )) .
And, by Corollary 2, the aggregate capital EC calculatedusing (6) satisfies
EC = %(L− E(L)) .
But when the assumptions of the Theorem do not hold, theaggregate capital may not have a meaningful interpretation.

data on (or views about) losses in each sub-unit.2 Calibrate a copula C to describe the dependence of losses in
each sub-unit.3 Specify joint model of losses using Sklar’s Theorem

Pros and Cons of Copula Approach
Copulas are a better theoretical tool for aggregation. They allowus to dispense with implausible assumptions. They avoid theconsistency requirements imposed by working with linearcorrelations.Implicitly aggregation based on the Gauss copula has been usedin insurance for years. For example @RISK by Palisade softwareimplicitly uses the Gauss copula to perform Monte Carlo riskanalysis.However, calibration remains a problem. Copula parameters areusually inferred from matrices of rank correlations, but these mayalso be based on sparse data and/or expert judgement?Like the standard formula approach, the copula approachrequires the exogenous specification of parameters determiningthe dependence model.

where the final approximation is very accurate.This suggests we estimate P by the matrix of pairwiseSpearman’s rank coefficients RS of the losses in the differentbusiness lines.Thus we need an estimate of (or expert opinion on) Rs.This is essentially the @RISK approach.

Suppose we assume a meta t model for X with copula C tν,P and we
wish to calibrate the correlation matrix P. The theoretical relationshipbetween Spearman’s rho and P is not known in this case, but arelationship between Kendall’s tau and P is known.It follows from Proposition 5.37 in book that

Economic Scenario Generation (ESG) Approach
In the economic scenario generation approach the correlationsare endogenous and result from specifying the mutualdependence of risks across the enterprise on common riskdrivers or factors.Let XF denote the set of common risk drivers and Xi the riskdrivers that are only relevant to sub-unit i . We assume
Li = `i (XF ,Xi ), i = 1, . . . ,d ,= `i (common factors, idiosyncratic factors) .
These models are invariably handled by Monte Carlo, i.e. therandom generation of scenarios for the factors.

Advantages
The ESG approach is much more “principles-based” thanapproaches based on correlations or copulas.It provides a natural framework for risk-based allocation of capitalto business units which allows risk-based performancemeasurement (RAROC).It also provides a framework for sensitivity analyses with respectto common factors and model risk studies with respect to modelassumptions.Tail dependence may be introduced by using heavy-tailedcommon risk drivers XF .
