Abstract: Accurately estimating risk measures for financial portfolios is critical for both financial institutions and regulators. However, many existing models operate at the aggregate portfolio level and thus fail to capture the complex cross-dependencies between portfolio components. To address this, a new approach is presented that uses vine copulas in combination with univariate ARMA-GARCH models for marginal modelling to compute conditional portfolio-level risk measure estimates by simulating portfolio-level forecasts conditioned on a stress factor. A quantile-based approach is then presented to observe the behaviour of risk measures given a particular state of the conditioning asset(s). In a case study of Spanish equities with different stress factors, the results show that the portfolio is quite robust to a sharp downturn in the American market. At the same time, there is no evidence of this behaviour with respect to the European market.
