Generalized Pareto distributions (GPD) are widely used for modeling excesses over high thresholds (within the framework of the POT-approach to modeling extremes). The aim of the paper is to give the review of the classical techniques for estimating GPD quantiles, and to apply these methods in finance - to estimate the Value- at-Risk (VaR) parameter, and discuss certain difficulties related to this subject.
Classification : 62P20
Keywords: Generalized Pareto distributions, excesses over high thresholds, quantiles of the distribution, value at risk.
