Replacing quantiles with their least squares analogues, called expectiles, has recently received increasing attention. The novel expectile-based risk measures satisfy all coherence requirements. We revisit their extreme value estimation for heavy-tailed distributions. First, we estimate the underlying tail index via weighted combinations of top order statistics and asymmetric least squares estimates. The resulting expectHill estimators are then used as the basis for estimating tail expectiles and Expected Shortfall. The asymptotic theory of the proposed estimators is provided, along with numerical simulations and applications to actuarial and financial data. date: 2018-09 date_type: published publisher: TSE Working Paper official_url: http://tse-fr.eu/pub/32939 faculty: tse divisions: tse keywords: Asymmetric least squares keywords: Coherent risk measures keywords: Expected shortfall keywords: Expectile keywords: Extrapolation keywords: Extremes keywords: Heavy tails keywords: Tail index language: en has_fulltext: TRUE subjectsJEL: JEL_C13 subjectsJEL: JEL_C14 view_date_year: 2018 full_text_status: public monograph_type: working_paper series: TSE Working Paper volume: 18-953 place_of_pub: Toulouse pages: 39 institution: Université Toulouse 1 Capitole department: Toulouse School of Economics book_title: TSE Working Paper oai_identifier: oai:tse-fr.eu:32939 harvester_local_overwrite: department harvester_local_overwrite: faculty harvester_local_overwrite: institution harvester_local_overwrite: place_of_pub harvester_local_overwrite: pages harvester_local_overwrite: pending harvester_local_overwrite: creators_idrefppn oai_lastmod: 2020-03-09T09:54:31Z oai_set: tse site: ut1 citation: Daouia, Abdelaati , Girard, Stéphane and Stupfler, Gilles (2018) ExpectHill estimation, extreme risk and heavy tails.
