To mitigate this problem, the CVaR can be estimated by extrapolating above a lower threshold than the VaR using a generalized Pareto distribution (GPD), which is often referred to as the peaks-over-threshold (POT) approach.

To mitigate this problem, extreme value theory can be used to derive an estimator for the CVaR that uses extrapolation beyond available samples.
