Abstract
AbstractWe propose a new stochastic model describing the joint distribution of (X,N), where N is a counting variable while X is the sum of N independent gamma random variables. We present the main properties of this general model, which include marginal and conditional distributions, integral transforms, moments and parameter estimation. We also discuss in more detail a special case where N has a heavy tailed discrete Pareto distribution. An example from finance illustrates the modeling potential of this new mixed bivariate distribution.
