Abstract: Abstract: Value at risk (VaR) and conditional value at risk (CVaR) are the most frequently used risk measures in current risk management practice. As an alternative to VaR, CVaR is attractive since it is a coherent risk measure. This paper recalls the development of financial risk measurement, and compares the advantages and disadvantages between VaR model and CVaR model.
