Summary: In this paper we present some of the salient properties of the Bertino family of copulas. We describe the support set of a Bertino copula and show that every Bertino copula is singular. We characterize Bertino copulas in terms of the joint distribution of max($$U$$, $$V$$) and min($$U$$, $$V$$) when $$U$$ and $$V$$ are uniform [0, 1] random variables whose copula is a Bertino copula. Finally, we find necessary and sufficient conditions for a Bertino copula to be extremal.
