Análisis de diferentes medidas de riesgo y apliación al EUROSTOX50

Abstract

[en] In this project I have defined nine of the most common risk measures. These measures quantify different concepts of risk. According to these concepts, I have proposed a classification. I have analysed the advantages and disadvantages of each measure, and what being a risk-free asset means in each case. Then, I have applied them to real data from EUROSTOXX 50. For each measure, I have sorted the companies based on their risk. I have compared the order obtained from each measure to verify if the results are coherent with the proposed classification. Finally, for the measures that depend on a parameter, I have analysed how it affects the results.
