Quantitative Risk Management- VaR and its Extension Ming-Heng Zhang? Improving Value at Risk for NON-Normal Retrun Distributions Authors – Doowoo Nam and Benton E.Gup Abstract – Non-normality of asset return distributions to develop a new VaR methodology to better handle skewness and fat-tailedness than existing approaches, while at the same time being more flexible than the historical simulation approaches.
