Summary This paper deals with finite sequences of exchangeable 0–1 random variables. Our main purpose is to exhibit the dependence structure between such indicators. Working with Kendall's representation by mixture, we prove that a convex order of higher degree on the mixing variable implies a supermodular order of same degree on the indicators, and conversely. The convex order condition is then discussed for three standard distributions (binomial, hypergeometric and Stirling) in which the parameter is randomized. Distributional properties of exchangeable indicators are also revisited using an underlying Schur-constant property. Finally, two applications in insurance and credit risk illustrate some of the results.SCOPUS: ar.jinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishe.
