Abstract
⺠Prudent risk aggregation requires specification of dependence between risks. ⺠Dependence can be modelled with copulas, but this is difficult in high dimensions. ⺠We propose a hierarchical risk aggregation model. ⺠Our model allows for flexible dependence structure and reduced model complexity. ⺠For approximation, we give an efficient algorithm based on sample reorderings.
