A Copula-Based family of Bivariate Composite Models for Claim Severity Modelling (2210.05091v1)

Abstract: In this paper, we consider bivariate composite models for modeling jointly different types of claims and their associated costs in a flexible manner. For expository purposes, the Gumbel copula is paired with the composite Weibull-Inverse Weibull, Paralogistic-Inverse Weibull, and Inverse Burr-Inverse Weibull marginal models. The resulting bivariate copula-based composite models are fitted on motor insurance bodily injury and property damage data from a European motor insurance company and their parameters are estimated via the inference functions for margins method.
