Understanding Relationships Using Copulas

Edward W. Frees, Emiliano A. Valdez · 1 Jan 1998

A copula is a function that links univariate marginals to their full multivariate distribution. Copulas were introduced in 1959 in the context of probabilistic metric spaces. The literature on the statistical properties and applications of copulas has…

On the Time Value of Ruin

Hans U. Gerber, Elias S. W. Shiu · 1 Jan 1998

Abstract This paper studies the joint distribution of the time of ruin, the surplus immediately before ruin, and the deficit at ruin. The time of ruin is analyzed in terms of its Laplace transforms, which can naturally be interpreted as discounting. Hence the classical risk theory model is generalized by discounting with respect to the…

An increasing complexity of financial instruments calls for sophisticated risk management tools. The securitization of risk and alternative risk transfer highlight the convergence of finance…

A Regime-Switching Model of Long-Term Stock Returns

Mary R. Hardy · 1 Apr 2001

Abstract In this paper I first define the regime-switching lognormal model. Monthly data from the Standard and Poor’s 500 and the Toronto Stock Exchange 300 indices are used to fit the model parameters, using maximum likelihood estimation. The fit of the regime-switching model to the data is compared with other common econometric models, including the…
