Operational risk capital: asymptotics in the case of heavy-tailed severity
Anupam Sahay, Zailong Wan, Brian Keller
Abstract
ABSTRACT
We present a second-order asymptotic approximation of operational value-at-risk capital, in the case of heavy-tailed severity distribution. This approximation, along with the well-known first-order result, is compared with simulation for a range of empirically relevant frequency and severity characteristics.
