A Worst-Case Risk Measure by G-VaR

G-VaR,which is a type of worst-case value-at-risk(VaR),is defined as measuring risk incorporating model uncertainty.Compared with most extant notions of worst-case VaR,G-VaR can be computed using an explicit formula,and can be applied to large portfolios of several hundred dimensions with low computational cost.We also apply G-VaR to robust portfolio optimization,thereby providing a tractable means to facilitate optimal allocations under the condition of market ambiguity.
