讲座摘要：

　　Systemic risk often measures the likelihood of the system being in distress when an individual is in distress.  In this talk, we will review some popular systemic risk measures, discuss issues on conditions, asymptotic theories, and tests for using the popular CoVaR systemic measure, propose a statistical method for measuring and testing the comovement impact on systemic risk,  develop a nonparametric method for selecting the optimal portfolio in terms of systemic risk, and illustrate these methods in financial applications.
