| Abstract | In this paper we deal with the semi-parametric estimation of the right tail 1-F. Through the use of probability weighted moments based on the largest observations, we study a class of estimators for the extreme value index γ, the scale parameter C and the Value-at-Risk at a level p, the size of the loss occurred with a small probability p. |
