In this thesis we provide a systematic investigation into these issues by studying their impacts on Credit Value Adjustment (CVA), Counterparty Credit Risk (CCR), and estimating Value-at-Risk for a portfolio of financial instruments. In particular we address the numerical issues of finding an unknown (worst-case) copula that ties marginal distributions of risk factors together given partial information about them.enCVACVaRVaRKnown MarginalsCVA contributionsAdaptive Rearrangement AlgorithmARAWorst-case copulaCCRCounterparty Credit RiskLinear ProgrammingRisk ManagementBaselDoctoral Thesis
