This talk proposes a new index to measure the degree of dependence between two risks, which assumes a value between zero and one and is equal to zero if and only if the risk is subindependent. The concept of subindependence is stronger than uncorrelatedness but weaker than independence. The proposed index is based on the characteristic function and can be simplified into the expression of moments. We study its theoretical properties and show that there is a very simple calculation formula for the corresponding statistical measure. Their asymptotic properties and applications are also discussed.
