In this paper, we extend the concept of mutual exclusivity proposed by Dhaene and Denuit (1999) to its tail counterpart and baptise this new dependency structure as tail mutual exclusivity. Probability levels are first specified for each component of the random vector. Under this dependency...

In this paper, we derive upper and lower bounds on the Range Value-at-Risk of the portfolio loss when we only know its mean and variance, and its feature of unimodality. In a first step, we use some classic results on stochastic ordering to reduce this optimization problem to a parametric one,...

Brown et al. (2006) derive a Stein-type inequality for the multivariate Student-t distribution. We generalize their result to the family of (multivariate) generalized hyperbolic distributions and derive a lower bound for the variance of a function of a random variable
