【报告摘要】：Copulafunction has been widely used in insurance and finance for modelinginter-dependency between risks. Inspired by the Bernstein copula (BC) putforward by Sancetta and Satchell (2004), we introduce a new class ofmultivariate copulas, the composite Bernstein copula (CBC), generated from acomposition of two copulas. This new class of copula functions is able tocapture tail dependence, and it has a reproduction property for the threeimportant dependency structures: comonotonicity, countermonotonicity andindependence. We introduce an estimation procedure based on the empiricalcomposite Bernstein copula (ECBC) which incorporates both prior information anddata into the estimation. Simulation studies and an empirical study onfinancial data illustrate the advantages of the ECBC estimation method,especially in capturing tail dependence. It is a joint work with Zhijin Chen,Fang Wang and Ruodu Wang.
