Value at Risk (VAR) is a risk measurement method that use in risk investment calculation. VAR shows risk in nominal. This research calculate risk portfolio of stock using VAR method and measure whether VAR value overvalued or underestimated. Using historical simulation method is found VAR value tend to decrease when stock investment consist more stocks in the portfolio. Risk investment calculation consistent with standar devistion as risk measurement, which the more investment diversified the less the risk in the investment. Then, using backtesting reveal that VAR tend too high in portfolio consisting small number of stocks. VAR value can accepted in the portfolio that consist many stocks or the more investment diversified the more accurate VAR value as risk measurement.

The literature on portfolio selection and risk measurement has considerably advanced in recent years. The aim of the present paper is to trace the development of the literature and identify areas that require further research. This paper provides a literature review of the characteristics of financial data, commonly used models of portfolio selection, and portfolio risk measurement. In the summary of the characteristics of financial data, we summarize the literature on fat tail and dependence characteristic of financial data. In the portfolio selection model part, we cover three models: mean-variance model, global minimum variance (GMV) model and factor model. In the portfolio risk measurement part, we first classify risk measurement methods into two categories: moment-based risk measurement and moment-based and quantile-based risk measurement. Moment-based risk measurement includes time-varying covariance matrix and shrinkage estimation, while moment-based and quantile-based risk measurement includes semi-variance, VaR and CVaR.
