A machine learning approach to portfolio pricing and risk management for high-dimensional problems

Damir Filipovic

We present a general framework for portfolio risk management in discrete time, based on a replicating martingale. This martingale is learned from a finite sample in a supervised setting. Our method le

Mean-Covariance Robust Risk Measurement

Daniel Kuhn, Damir Filipovic, Viet Anh Nguyen, Soroosh Shafieezadeh Abadeh

We introduce a universal framework for mean-covariance robust risk measurement and portfolio optimization. We model uncertainty in terms of the Gelbrich distance on the mean-covariance space, along wi

Taux d'intérêt

Le taux d'intérêt d'un prêt ou d'un emprunt fixe la rémunération du capital prêté (exprimée en pourcentage du montant prêté) versée par l'emprunteur au prêteur. Le taux et les modalités de versement de cette rémunération sont fixés lors de la conclusion du contrat de prêt. Ce pourcentage tient compte de la durée du prêt, de la nature des risques encourus et des garanties offertes par le prêteur. Les taux d'intérêt sont utilisés dans de multiples domaines, des instruments financiers jusqu'aux produits d'épargne (compte d'épargne), en passant par les obligations.

Short-rate model

A short-rate model, in the context of interest rate derivatives, is a mathematical model that describes the future evolution of interest rates by describing the future evolution of the short rate, usually written . Under a short rate model, the stochastic state variable is taken to be the instantaneous spot rate. The short rate, , then, is the (continuously compounded, annualized) interest rate at which an entity can borrow money for an infinitesimally short period of time from time .

Risque de crédit

Le risque de crédit est le risque qu'un emprunteur ne rembourse pas tout ou une partie de son crédit aux échéances prévues par le contrat signé entre lui et l'organisme préteur (généralement une banque). La maîtrise du risque de crédit est au cœur du métier du banquier car il détermine la rentabilité des opérations effectuées. Si l'établissement financier sous-évalue ce risque, le montant prêté et les intérêts dus ne seront pas perçus et viendront s'inscrire en perte.
