GARP SCR - Chapter 6 - CVar Case Study

Online revision sessions    Let's read the above graph: 1. As there is no description in the article title "Climate VaR spread by primary sectors of activity" by MCSI about the weights assigned to different sectors, it is difficult to comment on Weighted average aggregated Climate Var in different sectors. 2.

I have highlighted the negative values in green box to indicate profits and positive values in red box to indicate losses. With these points in mind, let us see the different sectors in the graph and try to reason out why there are on the negative or positiv
