The prominence of the Euler
allocation rule (EAR) is rooted in the fact that it is the only
return on risk-adjusted capital (RORAC) compatible capital
allocation rule. When the total regulatory capital is set using the
Value-at-Risk (VaR), the EAR becomes - using a statistical term -
the quantile-regression (QR) function. Although the cumulative QR
function (i.e., an integral of the QR function) has received
considerable attention in the literature, a fully developed
statistical inference theory for the QR function itself has been
elusive. In the webinar, we will develop such a theory based on an
empirical QR estimator, for which we establish consistency,
asymptotic normality, and standard error estimation. This makes the
herein developed results readily applicable in practice, thus
facilitating decision making within the RORAC paradigm, conditional
mean risk sharing, and current regulatory frameworks.
