## Rmetrics - Modelling Extreme Events in Finance
The **fExtremes** package provides functions for analysing and modelling
extreme events in financial time Series. The topics include: (i) data
pre-processing, (ii) explorative data analysis, (iii) peak over
threshold modelling, (iv) block maxima modelling, (v) estimation of VaR
and CVaR, and (vi) the computation of the extreme index. It is part of
the [Rmetrics software project](https://www.rmetrics.org/).
### An example
The following code simulates data from a GEV distribution and fits a GEV
distribution to these data.
``` r
library(fExtremes)
# Simulate GEV Data, use default length n=1000
x <- gevSim(model = list(xi = 0.25, mu = 0 , beta = 1), n = 1000)
# Fit GEV data using maximum likelihood estimation
fit <- gevFit(x, type = "mle")
fit
