After dealing with these theoretical results, the handbook focuses on the EVT methods critical for data analysis. Finally, the handbook features the practical applications and techniques, and how these can be implemented in financial markets. Extreme Events in Finance: A Handbook of Extreme Value Theory and its Applications also includes: Over 40 contributions from international experts in the areas of finance, statistics, economics, business, insurance, and risk management Topical discussions on univariate and multivariate case extremes as well as regulation in financial markets  Extensive references in order to provide readers with resources for further study Discussions on using R packages to compute the value of risk and related quantities  The book is a valuable reference for practitioners in financial markets such as financial institutions, investment funds, and corporate treasuries, financial engineers, quantitative analysts, regulators, risk managers, large-scale consultancy groups, and insurers. Extreme Events in Finance: A Handbook of Extreme Value Theory and its Applications is also a useful textbook for postgraduate courses on the methodology of EVTs in finance"--
