Abstract: This paper offers a mathematical invention that shows how to convert integrated quantiles, which often appear in risk measures, into integrated cumulative distribution functions, which are technically more tractable from various perspectives. The invention helps to avoid a number of technical assumptions that have been traditionally imposed when working with quantities containing quantiles. In particular it helps to completely avoid the requirement of the existence of a probability density function. The developed results explain and illustrate the invention, whose byproducts include the assessment of model uncertainty and misspecification, and the derivation of statistical inference results.
