Driven by a real data set, we propose three trivariate Sarmanov distributions with generalized linear models (GLMs) for marginals and incorporate various individual characteristics of the policyholders by means of explanatory variables. Since the data set was collected over a longer time period (10 years), we also added each individual’s exposure to risk. To estimate the parameters of the three Sarmanov distributions, we analyze a pseudo-maximumlikelihood method. Finally, the three models are compared numerically with the simpler trivariate Negative Binomial GLM.25 papplication/pdfengcc-by-nc-nd, (c) Bolancé Losilla et al., 2017http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/Variables (Matemàtica)Variables aleatòriesTeoria de distribucions (Anàlisi funcional)Teoria de l'estimacióVariables (Mathematics)Random variablesTheory of distributions (Functional analysis)Estimation theoryinfo:eu-repo/semantics/workingPaper2017-11-29info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
