Description: This research paper is intended to be a primer on extreme event modeling and mitigation for practitioners. It covers the complete cycle of extreme event risk management, from identifying experience data sources, to extreme event detection, to modeling and dependence analysis, and finally to monitoring and mitigation. This paper explores extreme events from the perspective of a global insurance company, with an emphasis on market risk, credit risk, insurance risk, liquidity risk, and business risk. Extreme risk concepts and models are introduced from a practitioner’s perspective without unnecessary theoretical details. This report is not intended to be all-encompassing, but rather to focus on the key aspects of extreme risk analysis and its application. The input data and R programs underlying the numerical examples herein are available in the supporting files accompanying this report
