Sequential Design and Spatial Modeling for Portfolio Tail Risk Measurement

We consider calculation of capital requirements when the underlying economic scenarios are determined by simulatable risk factors. In the respective nested simulation framework, the goal is to estimate portfolio tail risk, quantified via VaR or TVaR of a given collection of future economic scenarios representing factor levels at the risk horizon. Traditionally, evaluating portfolio losses of an outer scenario is done by computing a conditional expectation via inner-level Monte Carlo and is compu...
