摘要

风险管理在不确定性环境决策中常常起着重要作用。在量化风险管理中,评估和优化风险指标需要高效的计算技术和可靠的理论保证。本文介绍量化风险管理的几个主题,并回顾关于这些主题的一些研究和进展。我们考虑几个风险指标并研究涉及这些指标的决策模型,主要关注相关的计算技术和理论性质。我们说明随机优化作为一种强大的工具,可以用来有效处理这些问题。

Abstract

Risk management often plays an important role in decision making under uncertainty. In quantitative risk management, assessing and optimizing risk metrics requires efficient computing techniques and reliable theoretical guarantees. In this paper, we introduce several topics on quantitative risk management and review some of the recent studies and advancements on the topics. We consider several risk metrics and study decision models that involve the metrics, with a main focus on the related computing techniques and theoretical properties. We show that stochastic optimization, as a powerful tool, can be leveraged to effectively address these problems.
