This data scarcity complicates risk management efforts. Various tools can assess the risk posed by extreme events, even under extraordinary circumstances. This paper studies the evaluation of univariate risk for a given risk factor using metrics that account for its asymptotic dependence on other risk factors. Data availability is crucial, particularly for extreme events where it is often limited by the nature of the phenomenon itself, making estimation challenging. To address this issue, two non-parametric simulation algorithms based on multivariate extreme theory are developed. These algorithms aim to extend a sample of extremes jointly and conditionally for asymptotically dependent variables using stochastic simulation and multivariate Generalised Pareto Distributions. The approach is illustrated with numerical analyses of both simulated and real data to assess the accuracy of extreme risk metric estimations.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2406.08019v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2406.08019v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"assessing-extreme-risk-using-stochastic","repo_url":"https://github.com/MadharNisrine/MultivariateExtremeSimulator","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":0,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
