Abstract

As a counterpart to the (static) risk measures of generalized quantiles and motivated by Bellini et al. (2018), we propose a new kind of conditional risk measure called conditional generalized quantiles. We first show their well-definedness and they can be equivalently characterised by a conditional first order condition. We also discuss their main properties, and, especially, We give the characterization of coherency/convexity. For potential applications as a dynamic risk measure, we study their time consistency properties, and establish their equivalent characterizations among conditional generalized quantiles.
