We compare our empirical findings with a single Gaussian copula, a correlation-weighted average of … Gaussian copulas, the K-copula which directly addresses the nonstationarity of dependencies as a model parameter, and the … skewed Student's t-copula. The K-copula covers the empirical dependence structure on the local scale most adequately, whereas …
