Model Risk Analysis via Investment Structuring

preprint2015arXivOpen access

Abstract

"What are the origins of risks?" and "How material are they?" -- these are the two most fundamental questions of any risk analysis. Quantitative Structuring -- a technology for building financial products -- provides economically meaningful answers for both of these questions. It does so by considering risk as an investment opportunity. The structure of the investment reveals the precise sources of risk and its expected performance measures materiality. We demonstrate these capabilities of Quantitative Structuring using a concrete practical example -- model risk in options on vol-targeted indices.
