The event gathered65 participantsfrom 18 countries, across Europeand other continents, in the old and prestigious city of Cracow, a pearl of Polish art and culturalheritageandalsoagreatscientificcentre.Inspiredbytheniceatmosphere ofthevenuealltheparticipantswereactivelyinvolvedininterestingandstimulating discussionsaboutcopulatheoryanditsapplications. The workshopwas precededby a shortcourse “Copulae Calibrationin Theory and Practise” consisting of two sections organized by Claudia Czado and Eike Brechmann (Technische Universita¨t Mu¨nchen, Germany) and by Wolfgang K. Ha¨rdle and Ostap Okhrin (C.A.S.E. Humboldt-Universita¨t zu Berlin, Germany). The course was particularly devoted both to PhD students and youngresearchers, who have found challenging ideas about multivariate copula models, and to practitioners, who have particularly benefited of practical implementation of the proposedmethodologies. Asmembersoftheorganizingcommitteeoftheworkshop,wehavetheprivilege and the great pleasure to present this volume collecting results and achievements discussedbytheparticipants.Itisanotherconfirmationthattheeventwasfruitfulfor furtherscientificdevelopments.Therefore,wewouldliketoexpressourgratitudeto alltheparticipantsfortheirdelightfulcombinationofscholarlyinquiryandcheerful convivialitywhichconfirmcopulatheorybeingsuchanactiveareaofresearch. We also would like to acknowledge the support of the institutional organizers of the workshop: Polish Mathematical Society, C.A.S.E.—Center for Applied Statistics and Economics (Humboldt-Universita¨t zu Berlin, Germany) and Stefan Banach International Mathematical Center (Institute of Mathematics of Polish v vi Foreword AcademyofSciences).Moreover,wearehonouredtobesupportedbytheMinistry ofScienceandHigherEducationoftheRepublicofPoland.

Since its discovery in the early 1950s, copulas have contributed to understandbetter the variousfacets of stochastic dependenceand have allowed to breakawayfromthestandardassumptions(likemultivariateGaussiandistribution), whichgenerallyunderestimatetheprobabilityofjointextremerisks. Nowadays, copula-based dependence models are rapidly gaining considerable popularityinseveralfieldsandarebecomingindispensabletoolsnotonlyinfinance, insurance,riskmanagementandeconometricsbutalsoinbiostatistics,hydrologyor machinelearning.Forexample,theyarewidelyusedforthemodellingofmarket, credit and operational risk, as well as for the aggregation of risks and portfolio selection.Moreover,suchalargeinterestintheapplicationsofcopulashasspurred researchersandscientistsin investigatinganddevelopingnewtheoreticalmethods andtoolsforhandlingrandomnessanduncertaintyinpracticalsituations.
