Abstract
Empirical analysis of financial time series indicates that there is a great demand for qualitative new models. Paper presents preliminary results for estimating tail index applying Renyi entropy. Empirical results show that exchange rate of WIG’s time series are generated from distribution with significantly fatter tails than DJ’s time series
