Abstract

The recent financial crisis has shown that most market risk models - even if they deliver sufficiently accurate risk figures over short time horizons - are not able to provide reliable forecasts over longer time horizons.

As a potential remedy we introduce the concept of potential future market risk as a supplement to traditional market risk figures.
