Credit Default Swaps Drawup Networks: Too Interconnected to Be Stable?
We analyse time series of CDS spreads for a set of major US and European institutions in a period overlapping the recent financial crisis. We extend the existing methodology of ε-drawdowns to the one of joint ε-drawups, in order to estimate the conditional probabilities of spike-like co-movements among pairs of spreads. After correcting for randomness and finite size effects, we find that, depe...
متن کاملCredit Default Swaps networks and systemic risk
Credit Default Swaps (CDS) spreads should reflect default risk of the underlying corporate debt. Actually, it has been recognized that CDS spread time series did not anticipate but only followed the increasing risk of default before the financial crisis. In principle, the network of correlations among CDS spread time series could at least display some form of structural change to be used as an ...
متن کاملSystemic Risk Management in Financial Networks with Credit Default Swaps
We study insolvency cascades in an interbank system when banks are allowed to insure their loans with credit default swaps (CDS) sold by other banks. We show that, by properly shifting financial exposures from one institution to another, a CDS market can be designed to rewire the network of interbank exposures in a way that makes it more resilient to insolvency cascades. A regulator can use inf...
متن کاملValuation of credit default swaps and swaptions
This paper presents a conceptual framework for valuation of single-name credit derivatives, and recuperates, in some cases generalizing, a few of known results in credit risk theory. Valuation is viewed with respect to a given state price density and relative to a general numeraire. Default probabilities and recoveries are considered as processes adapted to a subfiltration, following Jeanblanc ...
متن کاملThe Real Effects of Credit Default Swaps
We examine the effect of introducing credit default swaps (CDSs) on firms’ investment and financing policies. Our model allows for dynamic investment and dynamic financing using equity and debt, and debt holders can trade in the CDS market. After calibrating the model, we compare an economy with a CDS market to an economy without one. The model contains both positive and negative effects of CDS...
