The assumption of normalcy is used in traditional approaches for calculating financial risk. Asymmetric Laplace distribution, on the other hand, reveals the properties of empirical financial data sets much better than the normal model by leptokurtosis and skewness. According to recent financial data research, the regularity assumption is frequently broken. As a result, Asymmetric Laplace laws offer a simple, creative, and useful option to normal distributions when it comes to modeling financial data. We here engage AL distribution to explore specific formulas for the two commonly used risk measures, Value-at-Risk (VaR) and Conditional Value-at-Risk (CVaR). The currency exchange rates data are used to and worked out to illustrate the proposed methodologies.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/sym14040807","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,4,14]],"date-time":"2022-04-14T03:07:16Z","timestamp":1649905636000},"page":"807","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Asymmetric Laplace Distribution Models for Financial Data: VaR and CVaR"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"14","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7298-4692","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Huiting","family":"Jing","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Economics & Management, Tongji University, Shanghai 200092, China"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3976-3577","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Yang","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Business, Liaocheng University, Liaocheng 252059, China"}]},{"given":"Jinghua","family":"Zhao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Capital One, N.A., Richmond, VA 23238, USA"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,4,13]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"317","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jimonfin.2017.02.010","article-title":"Black swan events and safe havens: The role of gold in globally integrated emerging markets","volume":"73","author":"Bekiros","year":"2017","journal-title":"J.
