Definition

Backtesting is a comparison of the forecast values and the actual values. For the course of the comparison period, you can define how far back in the past (from the key date) the evaluation should go - in other words, how often the system compares the VaR with the backtesting P/L in order to test how accurate the VaR forecast is.
