contents We study the relationship between measures of non-exchangeability $μ_p$ ($p\in[1,+\infty]$), in the sense of Durante et al. (2010), and classical dependence functionals for bivariate copulas. We show that the symmetrization $C\mapsto(C+C^t)/2$ preserves Spearman's $ρ$ while annihilating $μ_p$, and that Blomqvist's $β$ carries no information about the degree of non-exchangeability. We also establish the sharp lower bound $σ(C)\ge 6\,μ_1(C)$, where $σ$ is the Schweizer-Wolff dependence measure, showing that asymmetry implies dependence. Closed-form expressions for $τ$, $ρ$, and the tail-dependence coefficients of the maximally non-exchangeable family $\{M_θ\}$ are derived as illustrations.
