Abstract

Coefficients of tail dependence measure the dependencies between extreme values. In this paper, the upper tail dependence coefficients of two classes of skew slash distributions are derived. The difference of tail dependence coefficients between the two types skew slash distributions sheds light on the model choice for random variables with asymptotic dependence.
