Value-at-Risk: The Delta-normal Approach

    (Bank for International Settlements)

Abstract

This book presents a simple model (the simplest?) for the computation of the value-at-risk: the delta-normal approach. It doesn't explain the shortcomings and advantages of the method nor compares it with other models. Even on this single topic, by no way it pretends to be complete or in the forefront.
