摘要

In this work, a measure of the over-consumption risk is obtained as the probability that expense exceed disposable income. To this end, the joint distribution of income and expenses is constructed using the copula approach to account for the relation between them. Furthermore, reparameterized Dagum models are employed as marginal distributions. Data from Household Budget Survey (HBS) by Eurostat are used to illustrate how the considered risk measure varies across European countries.
