Correlated aggregate loss distributions or correlated<br />

frequencies The total loss distribution ϑ for the bank as whole is<br />

def<strong>in</strong>ed by<br />

ϑ (i, j)<br />

In this case, we could <strong>in</strong>troduce the <strong>dependence</strong> directly between the<br />

aggregate loss distributions.<br />

Or, we could <strong>in</strong>troduce the <strong>dependence</strong> <strong>in</strong>directly between the<br />

frequency distributions:<br />

n=0<br />

ζ n (i, j)<br />

For example, we could use multivarariate Poisson distributions<br />

generated from the Normal copula (Song [2000]).<br />
