In this paper we discuss some statistical pitfalls that may occur in modeling cross-dependences with copulas in financial applications. In particular we focus on issues arising in the estimation and the empirical choice of copulas as well as in the design of time-dependent copulas.

We cionsider semiparmetric assymetric kernel density estimators when the unkonwn density has support on [0,∞). We provide a unifying framework which contains assymmetric kernel versions of several semiparametric density estimators considered previously in the literature. This framework allows...

In this paper, we characterize explicitly the first derivative of the Value at Risk and the Expected Shortfall with respect to portfolio allocation when netting between positions exists. As a particular case, we examine a simple Gaussian example in order to illustrate the impact of netting...

We introduce a new approach on shape preserving estimation of cumulative distribution functions and probability density functions using the wavelet methodology for multivariate de- pendent data. Our estimators preserve shape constraints such as monotonicity, positivity and integration to one,...

This paper proposes a Kolmogorov-type test for the shortfall order (also known in the literature as the right-spread or excess-wealth order) against parametric alternatives. In the case of the null hypothesis corresponding to the Negative Exponential distribution, this provides a test for the...

In this paper, we investigate the relative performance of Value-at-Risk (VaR) models with the daily stock market returns of nine di.erent emerging markets. In addition to well-known modeling approaches such as variance-covariance method and historical simulation, we study the extreme value...
