INTRODUCTION
Intense research has been conducted over the past few years to address issues raised by the practical implementation of the advanced measurement approaches (AMA), in particular the loss distribution approach (LDA), presented in the Basel II proposals. Indeed, we believe that most of these issues are now sufficiently clarified to allow for a survey on operational risk quantitative techniques. This is the aim of this chapter.
The roots of quantitative LDA come from actuarial techniques that have been used by the insurance industry for a number of years. It is, of course, a very natural idea, apart from the fact that actuarial techniques could not be imported directly without due regard for the specific needs of operational risks, most notably the reporting bias and the paucity of data. Quantitative people who have looked closely at empirical data will agree that these two features about OpRisk data have a dramatic impact on capital charge. However, these two facets about data cannot be neglected altogether even though they introduce greater complexities and more sophisticated computations than most practitioners prefer.
