Copula Modeling : An Introduction for Practitioners, Paperback / softback Book

Copula Modeling : An Introduction for Practitioners Paperback / softback

Part of the Foundations and Trends® in Econometrics series

Paperback / softback

Description

Explores the copula approach for econometrics modeling of joint parametric distributions and demonstrates that practical implementation and estimation is relatively straightforward despite the complexity of its theoretical foundations.

An attractive feature of parametrically specific copulas is that estimation and inference are based on standard maximum likelihood procedures.

Thus, copulas can be estimated using desktop econometric software. This offers a substantial advantage of copulas over recently proposed simulation-based approaches to joint modeling.

Copulas are useful in a variety of modeling situations including financial markets, actuarial science, and microeconometrics modeling. Copula Modeling provides practitioners and scholars with a useful guide to copula modeling with a focus on estimation and misspecification.

The authors cover important theoretical foundations.

Throughout, the authors use Monte Carlo experiments and simulations to demonstrate copula properties.
