We develop a non-linear forecast combination rule based on copulas that incorporate the dynamic interaction between individual predictors. This approach is optimal in the sense that the resulting combined forecast produces the highest discriminatory power as measured by the receiver operating...

This paper defines a set of banking stability measures which take account of distress dependence among the banks in a system, thereby providing a set of tools to analyze stability from complementary perspectives by allowing the measurement of (i) common distress of the banks in a system, (ii)...

In the last few years, copulas have been widely applied in many field of studies. Concentrating our attention on financial applications, we pursue the goal to detect multivariate atypical observations by extending to elliptical copulas the forward search originally introduced in linear and...
