The paper focuses on the asymptotic comparison of the maximum likelihood estimators and the uniformly minimum variance unbiased estimators (with respect to quadratic loss) for one-parameter truncation families where a sufficient statistic is either the minimum or the maximum of the sample. Easily verifiable conditions are formulated under which those asymptotic results are valid.
