  • Recalibrating Expected Shortfall to Match Value-at-Risk for Discrete Distributions [Quant at Risk]

    By considering the same risk measure, , applied to two or more portfolios (credit loss distributions, profit-and-loss distributions, etc.) one desires to have a subadditivity property in place: (X1+X2)(X1)+(X2) i.e. meaning that two combined portfolios should never be more risky than the sum of the risk of two portfolios separately. Unfortunately, the Value-at-Risk risk measure does not
