Abstract: In this article, the exact form of Fisher information matrix for the generalized Feller-Pareto (GFP) distribution is determined. The GFP family is a general distribution which includes a variety of distributions as special cases. For example:• generalized Singh-Maddala distribution which in turn includes Burr, Fisk, and Lomax distribution (see Kleiber and Kotz, 2003);• a Pareto IV distribution which includes a hierarchy of Pareto models, omitted an additional location parameter (see Arnold, 1983, 2008); and• beta Lomax distribution which includes, for example, beta II and Lomax distributions.Application of these distributions covers a wide spectrum of areas ranging from actuarial science, economics, finance to bioscience, telecommunications, and medicine.
