Calibration of Multivariate Generalized Hyperbolic Distributions Using the EM Algorithm, with Applications in Risk Management, Portfolio Optimization and Portfolio Credit Risk

The distributions of many financial quantities are well-known to have heavy tails, exhibit skewness, and have other non-Gaussian characteristics. In this dissertation we study an especially promising family: the multivariate generalized hyperbolic distributions (GH). This family includes and general...
