BARBOSA CAMARGO, María Ines; SALAZAR SARMIENTO, Alejandra y PENALOZA GOMEZ, Kelly Jhohana. Value at Risk Through GARCH Models and Montecarlo Simulation: Evidence from the Colombian Stock Market. Semest. Econ. [online]. 2019, vol.22, n.53, pp.53-75. ISSN 0120-6346. https://doi.org/10.22395//seec.v22n53a3.
This paper evaluates the performance of several volatility models for estimating one-day-ahead Value-at-Risk (VaR) of twenty-four stocks return series in Colombia, using a number of distributional assumptions. Because all return series exhibit volatility clustering and long-range memory GARCH-type models including models under normal, T-Student and generalized error distribution are examined. The findings corroborate the difficulty of choosing a single model for calculating VaR, but validate the use of parametric models with normal distribution and Montecarlo simulation in emerging financial markets.
