Certain Important Perspectives Review
  • What is the risk?
  • A potential loss in the future
  • How to measure the risk
  • Use the historical data to simulate the
    distribution of return rate of your portfolio
  • For example, 2-year data to picture the
    distribution curve
  • Assume the return rate in the next trading day
    will be drawn from the same distribution
  • How to picture the distribution?
  • Mean and Standard errors
  • Correlation coefficients

14
Some Important Perspectives Review
  • Two Examples
  • The daily return rates of U.S. SP 500 stock
    index
  • The daily return rates of Taiwan company Acer
    2353

15
Use 2-yea data (near 500 daily return rates data)
to simulate the underlying distribution of return
rates of our portfolio Rt, for t1 to 500
Assume the return rate in the next trading day is
drawn from the same distribution Rt, for
t501,502,
If we assume the return rate follows the normal
distribution, then the potential loss can be
presented by standard error
Standard error, s
Standard error, s

17
Homework (1)
  • Please pick up one company
  • Figure the distributions of their daily stock
    price returns
  • One-year daily data at least
  • Estimate its mean and standard error
  • Assume the initial investment is 1 million
    dollars (1,000,000)
  • Calculate the potential 1 loss in the next day

18
Homework (1)
  • Does the distribution follow a normal
    distribution?
  • Normalize the returns (returns-mean)/SD
  • The 1 critical value of the distribution vs.
    2.33

19
More Discussions
  • One asset versus Portfolio?
  • Variance and covariance/correlation
  • Risk contribution?
  • stock 100 units, bond 50 units
  • Q a portfoliostock bond 150 units?
  • Normal distribution?
  • Other types of risk?

20
Structure of Financial Risk Management
  • Define the risk
  • Market risk
  • ALM risk
  • ALM interest rate risk
  • ALM liquidity risk
  • Credit risk
  • Measure the risk
  • Use the historical data to picture the
    distribution of the loss

21
Structure of Financial Risk Management
  • Manage the risk
  • Reduce the risk
  • Hedge
  • Diversification
  • Capital preparation
  • Risk allocation
