Abstract

Value At Risk (VAR) has become one of the accepted norms in financial decision making - not just for risk managers and regulators, but for anyone concerned with the actual numbers produced: traders, fund managers, corporate tresurers, etc.. Not only is capital set aside for regulatory compliance on the basis of these measures - such things as trading limits or capital allocation decisions may be set.
