=========================== Systemic Expected Shortfall =========================== Introduction ============ A measure of a financial institution's contribution to a systemic crisis by `Acharya, Pedersen, Philippon, and Richardson (2017) `_, which equals to the expected amount a bank is undercapitalized in a future systemic event in which the overall financial system is undercapitalized. SES increases in the bank’s expected losses during a crisis, and is related to the bank's :doc:`/measures/marginal_expected_shortfall`, i.e., its losses in the tail of the aggregate sector’s loss distribution, and leverage. SES is a theoretical construct and the authors use the following 3 measures to proxy it: 1. The outcome of stress tests performed by regulators. The SES metric of a firm here is defined as the recommended capital that it was required to raise as a result of the stress test in February 2009. 2. The decline in equity valuations of large financial firms during the crisis, as measured by their cumulative equity return from July 2007 to December 2008. 3. The widening of the credit default swap spreads of large financial firms as measured by their cumulative CDS spread increases from July 2007 to December 2008. Given these proxies, the authors seek to develop leading indicators which “predict” an institution’s SES, including marginal expected shortfall (MES) and leverage (LVG). Versions ======== Since SES is a theoretical construct, different versions of SES are available. BFLV2012 -------- This version estimates the **fitted SES** following `Bisias, Flood, Lo, and Valavanis (2012) `_. Specifically, the following model is estimated: .. math:: \textit{realized SES}_{i,\textit{crisis}} = a + b MES_{i,\textit{pre-crisis}} + c LVG_{i,\textit{pre-crisis}} + \varepsilon_{i} where :math:`\textit{realized SES}_{i,\textit{crisis}}` is the stock return during the crisis, and :math:`LVG_{i,\textit{pre-crisis}}` is defined as :math:`(\text{book assets - book equity + market equity}) / \text{market equity}`. The fitted SES is computed as .. math:: \textit{fitted SES} = \frac{b}{b+c} MES + \frac{c}{b+c} LVG APPR2017 -------- In `Acharya, Pedersen, Philippon, and Richardson (2017) `_, fitted SES is obtained via estimating the model: .. math:: \textit{realized SES}_{i,\textit{crisis}} = a + b MES_{i,\textit{pre-crisis}} + c LVG_{i,\textit{pre-crisis}} + \text{industry dummies} + \varepsilon_{i} and calculating the fitted value of :math:`\textit{realized SES}_{i}` directly, where the industry dummies include indicators for whether the bank is a broker-dealer, an insurance company, and other.
