The document describes parameters for a normal distribution including the mean, standard deviation, skewness, and kurtosis. It then shows the Cornish-Fisher expansion, which provides an approximation of the distribution using those moments. However, setting the kurtosis too high above its maximum value given the skewness means the approximation is no longer valid.
