Classical Differentiability of BSVIEs and Dynamic Capital Allocations

Abstract

Capital allocations have been studied in conjunction with static risk measures in various papers. The dynamic case has been studied only in a discrete-time setting. We address the problem of allocating risk capital to subportfolios in a continuous-time dynamic context. For this purpose we introduce a classical differentiability result for backward stochastic Volterra integral equations and apply this result to derive continuous-time dynamic capital allocations. Moreover, we study a dynamic capital allocation principle that is based on backward stochastic differential equations and derive the dynamic gradient allocation for the dynamic entropic risk measure.
