Abstract
Based on this literature synthesis, this dissertation sets out to contribute to the existing literature by answering two overarching research questions RQ1 and RQ2 throughout this dissertation.
RQ1: Are the taken-for-granted quantitative risk assessment and management approaches, including VaR, CoVaR, ES, etc., effective; if not, under what conditions are they useless and do become themselves a risk object for banks?
RQ2: How can the measurement and management of systemic or extreme risk be improved to compensate for the shortcomings of conventional quantitative approaches and to account for the financial system’s dynamic complexity?
