Abstract :
Open-end funds and Closed-end funds are two different operating mode for the fund. In this paper, it calculate the risk of the stock fund and compare the average VaR between the Open-end funds and Closed-end funds. As the Fund\´s day yield is non-normal state of "spike-thick tail" of the distribution characteristics, we use GARCH models to calculate the value of the fund\´s VaR. Empirical results showed that the VaR value of open-end funds and closed-end funds is different.
