Abstract
Abstract We apply a suitable modification of the functional delta method to statistical functionals that arise from law-invariant coherent risk measures. To this end we establish differentiability of the statistical functional in a relaxed Hadamard sense, namely with respect to a suitably chosen norm and in the directions of a specifically chosen “tangent space”. We show that this notion of quasi-Hadamard differentiability yields both strong laws and limit theorems for the asymptotic distribution of the plug-in estimators. Our results can be regarded as a contribution to the statistics and numerics of risk measurement and as a case study for possible refinements of the functional delta method through fine-tuning the underlying notion of differentiability.
期刊介绍:
Statistics & Risk Modeling (STRM) aims at covering modern methods of statistics and probabilistic modeling, and their applications to risk management in finance, insurance and related areas. The journal also welcomes articles related to nonparametric statistical methods and stochastic processes. Papers on innovative applications of statistical modeling and inference in risk management are also encouraged. Topics Statistical analysis for models in finance and insurance Credit-, market- and operational risk models Models for systemic risk Risk management Nonparametric statistical inference Statistical analysis of stochastic processes Stochastics in finance and insurance Decision making under uncertainty.
