- Errata for “Modeling Tail Behavior with Extreme Value Theory,” Risk Management, September 2009, Page 17 (changes are in bold):
Assume we are interested in the probability of a monthly return being less that -5% assuming it is less than -2.52%. This is equivalent to probability that the excess is greater than or equal to 2.48% (i.e. 5% - 2.52%) and can be found as 1 - G(2.48%) = 1 - .898 = .102. This is, of course, a conditional probability. The unconditional probability that a monthly return is less that -5% is .102 multiplied by the probability of being in this tail: .102*.04 or .004.
