Estimating the Value-at-Risk by Temporal VAE

Abstract: Estimation of the value-at-risk (VaR) of a large portfolio of assets is an important task for financial institutions. As the joint log-returns of asset prices can often be projected to a latent space of a much smaller dimension, the use of a variational autoencoder (VAE) for estimating the VaR is a natural suggestion. To ensure the bottleneck structure of autoencoders when learning sequential data, we use a temporal VAE (TempVAE) that avoids the use of an autoregressive structure for the observation variables.… Show more

“…Moreover, when they are equalities, they provide new ways to estimate different risk measures in practical applications, with special focus on the value at risk. It is known that topics related to the practical estimation of risks are very important in real-world applications (Buch et al 2023;Dacorogna 2023, etc. ).…”

“…In the financial domain, VAE has been employed to learn latent market structures and generate synthetic data with similar features. However, VAE may oversimplify the handling of extreme market fluctuations and nonlinear relationships, leading to inadequate generalization in some complex market situations (Buch et al, 2023).…”
