Abstract

In this article, the Laplace distribution is employed in lieu of the well-known normal distribution for finding better scalar values of risk. Explicit formulas for value-at-risk (VaR) and conditional value-at-risk (CVaR) are studied and used to manage the risk involved in a stock movement by using the GARCH model. Numerical simulations are given for a variety of stocks in equity markets to uphold the findings.
