Abstract

This paper starts with a few critical considerations about the use of copulas in applications, mainly in the field of Mathematical Finance. Two points will be stressed: (i) the construction of asymmetric copulas and (ii) the construction of multivariate copulas. Also, it briefly touches on the long-standing problem of compatibility.
