Descripción: The problem of estimating the tail index from truncated data is addressed in [2]. In that paper, a sample based (and hence random) choice of k is suggested, and it is shown that the choice leads to a consistent estimator of the inverse of the tail index. In this paper, the second order behavior of the Hill estimator with that choice of k is studied, under some additional assumptions. In the untruncated situation, asymptotic normality of the Hill estimator is well known for distributions whose tail belongs to the Hall class, see [11]. Motivated by this, we show the same in the truncated case for that class.
