<dc:description xml:lang="es">Sumario: This article compares the relative performance of three methods of inference using distributions suitable for actuarial applications, particularly those that are right-skewed, heavy-tailed, and left-truncated. We compare the traditional maximum likelihood method, which only considers the group limits and frequency of observations in each group, to two research innovations: a modified maximum likelihood method and a modified generalized method of moments approach, both of which incorporate additional group mean information
in the estimation process. We perform a simulation study where the proposed methods outperform the traditional maximum likelihood method and the maximum entropy when the true underlying distribution is both known and unknown</dc:description>
