This paper proposes a procedure for efficient estimation of the trimmed mean of a random variable conditional on a set of covariates. For concreteness, the paper focuses on a financial application where the trimmed mean of interest corresponds to the conditional expected shortfall, which is...

Given a scalar random variable Y and a random vector X defined on the same probability space, the conditional distribution of Y given X can be represented by either the conditional distribution function or the conditional quantile function. To these equivalent representations correspond two...

A procedure for efficient estimation of the trimmed mean of a random variable conditional on a set of covariates is proposed. For concreteness, the focus is on a financial application where the trimmed mean of interest corresponds to the conditional expected shortfall, which is known to be a...
