market risk经典题22页Q1.1和Q1.4都提到了一个知识点。
Using a VAR confidence level creates a narrower rejection region by allowing a greater number of exceptions to be generated. This in turn increases the power og backtesting process and makes for a more reliable test.
请老师帮忙解释下这句话的逻辑。里面提到的拒绝域变窄,例外的数量就变多了,这句话是说alpha变小了,比如从检验的时候的confidence level 从99%变到95%了么?还是说confidence level对应的Z值从2.58变成了1.96?还是说从99%VAR变成了95%VAR……好晕啊,请老师解惑,感恩。
