Asymptotic independence in more than two dimensions and its implications on risk management
Abstract In extreme value theory, the presence of asymptotic independence signifies that joint extreme events across multiple variables are unlikely. Although well understood in a bivariate context, the concept remains relatively unexplored when addressing the nuances of simultaneous occurrence of extremes in higher dimensions.

Risk Times in Mission‐Oriented Systems
ABSTRACT This article assesses risk times in mission‐oriented systems with high safety standards. We examine critical times under two safety policies. The first requires that the system's reliability function, known the first failure of the components, must exceed a reliability level throughout the mission.

Characterizations of Archimedean n-copulas [PDF]
Summary: We present three characterizations of \(n\)-dimensional Archimedean copulas: algebraic, differential and diagonal. The first is due to Jouini and Clemen. We formulate it in a more general form, in terms of an \(n\)-variable operation derived from a binary operation.

Simulation algorithms for hierarchical Archimedean copulas beyond the completely monotone case
Two simulation algorithms for hierarchical Archimedean copulas in the case when intra-group generators are not necessarily completely monotone are presented. Both generalize existing algorithms for the completely monotone case.

McDowell and Sellars on Objective Purport
Abstract John McDowell has criticized Wilfrid Sellars on several occasions and over a number of years for his ‘non‐relational’ account of intentionality. This account is, according to McDowell, at least partly responsible for a ‘blind spot’ in Sellars's thinking: Sellars, allegedly, fails to see how objects or states of affairs in the external world ...

Hierarchical Archimedean Copulae: The HAC Package [PDF]
This paper presents the R package HAC, which provides user friendly methods for dealing with hierarchical Archimedean copulae (HAC). Computationally efficient estimation procedures allow to recover the structure and the parameters of HAC from data. In addition, arbitrary HAC can be constructed to sample random vectors and to compute the values of the ...

Robust Bernoulli Mixture Models for Credit Portfolio Risk
ABSTRACT This paper presents comparison results and establishes risk bounds for credit portfolios within classes of Bernoulli mixture models, assuming conditionally independent defaults that are stochastically increasing in a common risk factor. We provide simple and interpretable conditions on conditional default probabilities that imply a comparison ...

Market Insurance and Risk Pooling in U.S. Crop Insurance
ABSTRACT A common assumption is that multiple‐peril crop insurance markets suffer from market failures, thus justifying government intervention in the form of premium subsidies, operating allowances, and reinsurance agreements. One prominent rationale for intervention involves geographic correlation in agricultural production which leads to systemic ...

Modelling cascading effects for systemic risk: Properties of the Freund copula
We consider a dependent lifetime model for systemic risk, whose basic idea was for the first time presented by Freund. This model allows to model cascading effects of defaults for arbitrarily many economic agents.
