Abstract

La metodologia del Value at Risk è diventata lo standard de-facto per la misurazione del rischio di mercato nel sistema bancario internazionale. In questo lavoro si è analizzato tale metodo sotto diverse prospettive: la procedura di calcolo, lo sviluppo della normativa e degli utilizzi operativi nelle banche, lo stato di implementazione nei principali gruppi bancari europei e da parte delle autorità di vigilanza. Per la parte analitica è stata costruita una originale struttura formale per evidenziare le differenze tra i vari metodi di calcolo del VaR, che sono stati poi sviluppati nel linguaggio Matlab per le opportune prove empiriche. Sono stati analizzati i principali utilizzi operativi nell'area finanza di tale metodologia: fissazione di limiti operativi, calcolo della performance, allocazione del capitale. Il lavoro prosegue con la rassegna di alcune esperienze di gruppi bancari europei. Nelle conclusioni vengono evidenziati due aspetti specifici della diffusione del VaR: le modifiche organizzative nelle banche e l'impatto a livello sistemico. Oltre al paper è possibile scaricare le routine in Matlab v. 5 e v. 6
