Abstract
Abstract Nonparametric estimation of tail dependence can be based on a standardization of the marginals if their cumulative distribution functions are known. In this paper it is shown to be asymptotically more efficient if the additional knowledge of the marginals is ignored and estimators are based on ranks. The discrepancy between the two estimators is shown to be substantial for the popular Clayton and Gumbel–Hougaard models. A brief simulation study indicates that the asymptotic conclusions transfer to finite samples.
期刊介绍：
Statistics & Risk Modeling (STRM) aims at covering modern methods of statistics and probabilistic modeling, and their applications to risk management in finance, insurance and related areas. The journal also welcomes articles related to nonparametric statistical methods and stochastic processes. Papers on innovative applications of statistical modeling and inference in risk management are also encouraged. Topics Statistical analysis for models in finance and insurance Credit-, market- and operational risk models Models for systemic risk Risk management Nonparametric statistical inference Statistical analysis of stochastic processes Stochastics in finance and insurance Decision making under uncertainty.
