This paper tests the “Square Root Rule” (the SRR), a Basel sanctioned method of scaling 1-day Value At risk to higher time horizons. The SRR has come under serious assault from leading researchers focusing on its week theoretical basis: assuming i.i.d. asset returns. I performed an empirical test of the SRR on the 10-day horizon, the maximum horizon allowed by Basel, comparing SRR performance to d

It is shown that the VaR measure varies significantly with the choice of daily return i
