We simplify the implementation of some elliptical copula regression models through the normal representation. Both copula and marginal probability density functions are expressed as the scale mixtures of normals to facilitate the estimation procedure. With the fact that all elliptical...

This study proposes a Bayesian approach for exact finite-sample inference of an instrument-free estimation method that builds upon joint estimation using copulas to deal with endogenous covariates. Although copula approaches with applications to handle regressor-endogeneity have been frequently...

This paper poses a new methodology to estimate the required economic capital for a retail-credit portfolio. The methodology is based on both the general copula concepts and some core results from the extreme value theory (EVT). The main results support the fact that the proposed methodology is...
