The propose of this paper is to develop a Bayesian procedure that adequately account for studies with zero observations in meta-analysis and then we focus the problem in the context of the Bayesian selection models. Also, attention is focused to the link distribution between effectiveness in...

Due to the supported economic growth of the first decade of the 21st century, Colombia managed to reduce the levels of poverty and inequality. Nevertheless, the country continued to present one of the most inequitable economies in the world maintaining a high income concentration. In that sense,...

Chronic inflation has affected Latin America for decades, leading to numerous stabilization attempts. In this article, we develop a novel database with 46 stabilization plans in 13 Latin American countries between 1970-2020, which we classified into three categories: failures, transitory...

It was in the 1990's when the concept of Operational Risk was defined, since then the institutions, especially those in the financial sector, are worried about this type of risk since their exposure could have fatal consequences. In case of the insurance sector its study originates due to the...

In the survey analysis, the missing data problem can be managed by using Multiple Imputation (MI) methods. In this paper we show the empirical application of MI methods to the financial variables included in Chile’s Social Protection Survey 2004. Based on

In this paper we introduce two general non-parametric first-order stationary time-series models for which marginal (invariant) and transition distributions are expressed as infinite-dimensional mixtures. That feature makes them the first Bayesian stationary fully non-parametric models developed...
