It uses 5% and 1% critical value under Normal distribution.  Back- testing based on likelihood ratio LR accepted empirical quartile at both five and one percent, while accepting delta normal, historical simulation, percentile, IGARCH, and Monte Carlo at one percent. The worst loss obtained is approximately 4%.</p> ER -
