Quantitative Risk Management: Concepts, Techniques, and Tools
TL;DR: The most comprehensive treatment of the theoretical concepts and modelling techniques of quantitative risk management can be found in this paper, where the authors describe the latest advances in the field, including market, credit and operational risk modelling.
Book
Risk Analysis: A Quantitative Guide
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a risk analysis approach based on Monte-Carlo simulation, which is used to fit a first-order parametric distribution to observed data and then combine it with a second-order probability distribution.

fitdistrplus: An R Package for Fitting Distributions
TL;DR: Fitdistrplus as discussed by the authors provides functions for fitting univariate distributions to different types of data (continuous censored or non-censored data and discrete data) and allowing different estimation methods (maximum likelihood, moment matching, quantile matching and maximum goodness of fit estimation).
Journal ArticleDOI
Understanding Relationships Using Copulas
TL;DR: This article introduces actuaries to the concept of “copulas,” a tool for understanding relationships among multivariate outcomes, a function that links univariate marginals to their full multivariate distribution, and several families of copulas that have appeared in the literature.

Efficient analytical fragility function fitting using dynamic structural analysis
TL;DR: In this article, the applicability of statistical inferences to seismic assessment procedures is discussed, and the application of statistical inference to seismic fragility functions is also discussed, using dynamic structural analysis.
