Abstract
[fr] The purpose of this master thesis is to analyze and compare the risk of two different portfolios
of currencies through the application of risk measures. One portfolio is composed of 5
currencies of emerging countries and the other one is composed of 5 currencies of developed
countries. The Extreme Value Theory is applied on the two portfolios using two methods: the Block Maxima Method and the Peak-Over-Threshold method.
