You work as a project manager for company Inc. You are using market risk, value at risk (VaR), historical simulation (HS), and extreme value theory (EVT) so as to analyze a portfolio and make forecasts of the likely losses that would be incurred for a variety of risks. Which of the following processes are you using to accomplish the task?

I feel like risk limitation might be too broad for this context. It seems more focused on the analytical processes, so I lean towards risk modeling as well.

I'm a bit confused; I thought risk exposure was more about identifying risks rather than analyzing them. Could it be a trick question?

C) Risk modeling, easy peasy. Although, I have to say, extreme value theory sounds like something straight out of a sci-fi movie. Maybe we should start a risk modeling club and invite the aliens to join?
