Abstract: In this article we study a generalization of the Laplace distribution. The generalization is motivated by the recent work of Cordeiro and de Castro [2] and is based on the cumulative distribution function of the Kumaraswamy distribution. We provide a comprehensive description of the structural properties of the subject distribution and its successful application to model some economic data.
