Bond Implied CDS Spread and CDS-Bond Basis
We derive a simple formula for calculating the CDS spread implied by the bond market price. Using no-arbitrage argument, the formula expresses the bond implied CDS spread as the sum of bond price, bond coupon and Libor zero curve weighted by risky annuities. We show that the bond implied CDS spread is consistent with the standard CDS pricing model if the survival probabilities and recovery are ...
متن کاملStock and bond return predictability: the discrimination power of model selection criteria
We analyze the discrimination power of well-known model selection criteria when R2 is low as in typical asset return predictability studies. We ...nd that the discrimination power is low in this setup and in particular give another interpretation to the well-cited Bossaerts and Hillion (1999) study. We then look at model selection criteria in a testing framework and propose, as a diagnostic too...
متن کاملRevisiting the Predictability of Bond Risk Premia
This paper investigates the source of predictability of bond risk premia by means of long-term forward interest rates. We show that the predictive ability of forward rates could be due to the high serial correlation and cross-correlation of bond prices. After a simple reparametrization of models used to predict spot rates or excess returns, we nd that forward rates exhibit much less predictive...
متن کاملThe CDS Bond Basis Spread in Emerging Markets: Liquidity and Counterparty Risk E¤ects (Draft)
This paper explores the parity between CDS premiums and bond spreads for emerging market sovereign entities. Previous studies found that this parity holds between bonds and CDSs for US corporate debt. We nd that this parity does not hold for Emerging Markets sovereign debt. In order to explain the pricing deviations we focus on two frictions, liquidity and counterparty risk. First, we present ...
متن کاملTrading the Bond-CDS Basis - The Role of Credit Risk and Liquidity
We analyze trading opportunities that arise from differences between the bond and the CDS market. By simultaneously entering a position in a CDS contract and the underlying bond, traders can build a default-risk free position that allows them to repeatedly earn the difference between the bond asset swap spread and the CDS, known as the basis. We show that the basis size is closely related to me...
