Abstrakt:
The soundness of risk monitoring and measuring systems is a key point for the reliability of
financial institutions. One of the features of a reliable risk model is that it passes a backtesting
procedure – a comparison of the one step ahead risk estimation and a true loss occurred on a
given day – without any troubles. Within this paper, basic tests to backtesting procedure due to
Kupiec, Christoffersen and Haas are applied on a portfolio sensitive to equity and FX rate risk.
In particular details, we focus on NIG model and its variants due to various time spans used
for parameter estimation. We document a significant improvement of such tail risk models on
several portfolio positions.
