Value-at-Risk bounds for aggregated risks have been derived in the literature in settings where besides the marginal distributions of the individual risk factors one-sided bounds for the joint distribution respectively the copula of the risks are available. In applications it turns out that...

Based on a novel extension of classical Hoeffding-Fréchet bounds, we provide an upper VaR bound for joint risk portfolios with fixed marginal distributions and positive dependence information. The positive dependence information can be assumed to hold in the tails, in some central part, or on a...

We show that the rearrangement algorithm introduced in Puccetti and Rüschendorf (2012) to compute distributional bounds can be used also to compute sharp lower and upper bounds on the expected value of a supermodular function of d random variables having fixed marginal distributions. Compared...
