Resumo(s)

The aim of this project is to calculate the Value at Risk (VaR) in different European companies of two different sectors: banking and insurance. The study will include two different periods (before and during COVID-19) to calculate VaR and three different methods will be used: Historical Simulation, Student t and Normal Linear distribution. The purpose of this study is to understand how the different companies from banking and insurance industries have faced a crisis period, i.e., the global pandemic we have been facing since more than one year now, comparing to a period where there was no crise like this one. Furthermore, after getting these results, it is expectable to know which sector has been having a better performance during COVID-19. The individual VaR of each company will also be calculated to conclude what was the company with the best performance among the chosen ones.
