VALUE AT RISK
• VaR is the percentile of a distribution the
observations (i.e. the distribution of portfolio
returns)
• If we assume that returns are normally distributed,
the Value at Risk is calculated simply as the a-th
quantile (where a is the significance level) of a
normal distribution with parameters μ and s2 .
• So calculate μ and s2 and then use the function
“NORM.INV” of excel to calculate the VaR.
