A two-component copula with links to insurance

S. Ismail, G. Yu, G. Reinert, T. Maynard (2017)

Dependence Modeling

Similarity:

This paper presents a new copula to model dependencies between insurance entities, by considering how insurance entities are affected by both macro and micro factors. The model used to build the copula assumes that the insurance losses of two companies or lines of business are related through a random common loss factor which is then multiplied by an individual random company factor to get the total loss amounts. The new two-component copula is not Archimedean and it extends the toolkit...

A copula test space model how to avoid the wrong copula choice

Frederik Michiels, Ann De Schepper (2008)

Kybernetika

Similarity:

We introduce and discuss the test space problem as a part of the whole copula fitting process. In particular, we explain how an efficient copula test space can be constructed by taking into account information about the existing dependence, and we present a complete overview of bivariate test spaces for all possible situations. The practical use will be illustrated by means of a numerical application based on an illustrative portfolio containing the S&P 500 Composite Index, the JP...

Constructing copulas by means of pairs of order statistics

Ali Dolati, Manuel Úbeda-Flores (2009)

Kybernetika

Similarity:

In this paper, we introduce two transformations on a given copula to construct new and recover already-existent families. The method is based on the choice of pairs of order statistics of the marginal distributions. Properties of such transformations and their effects on the dependence and symmetry structure of a copula are studied.

Extreme distribution functions of copulas

Manuel Úbeda-Flores (2008)

Kybernetika

Similarity:

In this paper we study some properties of the distribution function of the random variable C(X,Y) when the copula of the random pair (X,Y) is M (respectively, W) – the copula for which each of X and Y is almost surely an increasing (respectively, decreasing) function of the other –, and C is any copula. We also study the distribution functions of M(X,Y) and W(X,Y) given that the joint distribution function of the random variables X and Y is any copula.

On Conditional Value at Risk (CoVaR) for tail-dependent copulas

Piotr Jaworski (2017)

Dependence Modeling

Similarity:

The paper deals with Conditional Value at Risk (CoVaR) for copulas with nontrivial tail dependence. We show that both in the standard and the modified settings, the tail dependence function determines the limiting properties of CoVaR as the conditioning event becomes more extreme. The results are illustrated with examples using the extreme value, conic and truncation invariant families of bivariate tail-dependent copulas.

On an asymmetric extension of multivariate Archimedean copulas based on quadratic form

Elena Di Bernardino, Didier Rullière (2016)

Dependence Modeling

Similarity:

An important topic in Quantitative Risk Management concerns the modeling of dependence among risk sources and in this regard Archimedean copulas appear to be very useful. However, they exhibit symmetry, which is not always consistent with patterns observed in real world data. We investigate extensions of the Archimedean copula family that make it possible to deal with asymmetry. Our extension is based on the observation that when applied to the copula the inverse function of the generator...
