Risk analysis using QuantLib

Grześ Andruszkiewicz
Hi everyone,

Is there a standard way to do basic risk analysis/optimisation using QuantLib? I am thinking about exposing some risk metrics, e.g. VaR, StdDev of payout, etc. in say a year from the valuation date (or some defined date, or maturity of the instrument, etc.), so at least one could do basic mean-variance type of optimisation with VaR constraints in Excel (I don't want to optimize this stuff automatically, just expose appropriate metrics).

Regards,
Grzegorz

Yes, the stuff in ql/math/statistics all we have.  It provides the
statistics functions (VaR etc) but leaves it to you to produce the
data.
