Riassunto: In reliability contexts, probabilities of the type R = P(X < Y), where X and Y are random variables, have shown to be useful tools to compare the performance of these stochastic entities. By considering that both X and Y follow a transmuted generalized extreme-value (TGEV) distribution, new analytical relationships were derived for R in terms of special functions. The results hereby obtained are more flexible when compared to similar results found in the literature. To highlight the applicability and correctness of our results, we conducted a Monte-Carlo simulation study and investigated the use of the reliability measure P(X < Y) to select among financial assets whose returns were characterized by the random variables X and Y. Our results highlight that R is an interesting alternative to modern portfolio theory, which usually relies on the contrast of involved random variables by a simple comparison of their means and standard deviations.
