This paper is about a risk measure called tail conditional expectations and their explicit forms for the family of elliptical distributions. This family coincides with the family of symmetric distributions in the univariate case (e.g. normal, Student-t) and can be characterized using either: characteristic generator density generator ƒ ŠŒ Š Samos 2004 Workshop, Risk Measures and Optimal Portfolio Selection, Dhaene/Valdez/Hoedemakers p. 105/278

We extended the ideas into the multivariate framework allowing us to decompose the total of the tail conditional expectations into its various constituents. decomposing the total into an allocation formula Landsman and Valdez (2003) œ š š œ Samos 2004 Workshop, Risk Measures and Optimal Portfolio Selection, Dhaene/Valdez/Hoedemakers p. 106/278
119 «² ³ µ µ ½ ½ ³ º À Risk Measure A risk measure ϑ is a mapping from the space of random variables L to the set of real numbers: ϑ : X L R. Some useful properties of a risk measure: 1. Monotonicity: X 1 X 2 with probability 1 = ϑ (X 1 ) ϑ (X 2 ). 2. Homogeneity: ϑ (λx) = λϑ (X) for any non-negative λ. 3. Subadditivity: ϑ (X 1 + X 2 ) ϑ (X 1 ) + ϑ (X 2 ). 4. Translation Invariance: ϑ (X + α) = ϑ (X) + α for any constant α. Some consequences: ϑ (0) = 0; a X b = a ϑ (X) b; ϑ (X ϑ (X)) = 0. «² ³ ± ¼ ²» ¹ ¾ ¹ ½ Samos 2004 Workshop, Risk Measures and Optimal Portfolio Selection, Dhaene/Valdez/Hoedemakers p. 107/278
