Abstract

For two risks, X and Y, the Marginal Expected Shortfall (MES) is defined as \(\mathbb {E}[Y\mid X>F_{X}^{\leftarrow }(1-p)]\), where FX is the distribution function of X and p is small. In this paper we establish consistency and asymptotic normality of an estimator of MES on assuming that (X, Y ) follows a Conditional Extreme Value (CEV) model. The theoretical findings are supported by simulation studies. Our procedure is applied to some financial data.
