In this paper, we review the use of copulas for multivariate survival modelling. In particular, we study properties of survival copulas and discuss the dependence measures associated to this construction. Then, we consider the problem of competing risks. We derive the distribution of the failure...

In this paper, we explore the Loss Distribution Approach (LDA) for computing the capital charge of a bank for operational risk where LDA refers to statistical/actuarial methods for modelling the loss distribution. In this framework, the capital charge is calculated using a Value-at-Risk measure....
