Abstract:
One of the most crucial aspects of financial risk management is risk measurement. Advanced AI-based solutions can provide the proper tools for assessing global markets, given the complexity of the global economy and the violation of typical modeling assumptions. A new strategy for quantifying stock portfolio risk based on one of the machine learning models known as Variational Autoencoders is provided in this dissertation. The suggested method is a generative model that can learn the stocks' dependency structure without relying on assumptions about stock return covariance and produce various market scenarios using cross-sectional stock return data with a higher signal-to-noise ratio. We compare the proposed model's out-of-sample findings to those of twelve existing approaches, demonstrating that it is comparable with many of the well-known models for predicting the value at risk
