Boundaries of Correlation Adjustment with Applications to Financial Risk Management

In recent years, stress testing has become a regulatory requirement for risk assessment in financial institutions. To perform stress testing in multi-asset case, adjusting the correlation matrix to an extreme level is an important process. With a larger matrix, it is more difficult to choose the rig...
