Definition of Value at Risk (VaR) Value at risk is a statistical technique which measures the level of financial risk in a portfolio over a specific time frame. For example‚ if a firm states that it has a 1% one week value at risk of $5 million; this would mean that for any given week‚ the firm would have a 1% chance of losing $5 million.
