Resumen
Regulators and financial institutions are increasingly interested in estimating the value-at-risk of the traded assets in the capital markets; the former in order to define their control scheme and the latter with the intention to limit losses for changes in prices. In recent years, financial institutions have given greater participation to derivatives in their investment portfolios. However, the commonly used methods for measuring market risk are inaccurate when applied to portfolios containing nonlinear financial instruments such as options. The aim of this paper is to analyze and apply three parametric methodologies for measuring market risk in financial options. Likewise, the performance of each method is compared and it concludes on the results obtained.
