The study looks at the unexpected volatility in the foreign exchange market to determine the market risk exposure of the Philippine peso to the US dollar focusing on expected shortfall (ES). Estimates between historical and extreme value approach are compared. Peak-over-threshold (PoT) and block maxima (BM) techniques are employed to obtain the extreme observations with results showing that the former method is more reliable on risk estimation. Backtesting the model using the Traffic Light Approach, results show that the expected shortfall falls under the Green zone with no values exceeds the risk estimate throughout the year.
