This book is about how extreme and systemic risk can be analyzed in
an integrated way. Risk analysis is understood to include
measurement, assessment as well as management aspects. Integration
is understood as being able to perform risk analysis for extreme
and systemic events simultaneously. The presented approach is based
on Sklar's theorem, which states that a multivariate distribution
can be separated into two parts - one describing the marginal
distributions and the other describing the dependency between the
distributions using a so-called copula. It is suggested to
reinterpret Sklar's theorem from a system or network perspective,
treating copulas as a network property and individual, including
extreme, risk as elements within the network. In that way, extreme
and systemic risk can be analyzed independently as well as jointly
across several scales. The book is intended for a large audience,
and all techniques presented are guided with examples and
applications with a special focus on natural disaster events.
Furthermore, an extensive literature and discussion of it are given
in each chapter for the interested reader.
