问题如下:
In Statement 2, Kynnersley implies that the portfolio:
选项:
A.is at risk of losing $4,500 each trading day
value is expected to decline by $90,000 or more once in 20 trading days.
has a 5% chance of falling in value by a maximum of $90,000 on a single trading day.
解释:
B is correct. Value at risk is the minimum loss that would be expected a certain percentage of the time over a certain period of time. Statement 2 implies that there is a 5% chance the portfolio will fall in value by $90,000 (= $6,000,000 ×1.5%) or more in a single day. If VaR is measured on a daily basis and a typical month has 20–22 business days, then 5% of the days equates to about 1 day per month or once in 20 trading days.
老师,这个5% of one day = once per month (1 day out of 20 days is 5% of the month) 我懂
但是要是转换成月的概念,我们不是应该用那种 miu * 20 - sigma * sq root 20 么?
为什么monthly mini loss和dialy minimum loss 一样呢?
