Sovereign Debt Renegotiation and Credit Default Swaps
A credit default swap (CDS) contract provides insurance against default. After a country defaults, the country and its lenders usually negotiate over the share of the defaulted debt to be repaid. This paper incorporates CDS contracts into a sovereign default model and demonstrates that the existence of a CDS market results in lower default probability, higher debt levels, and lower nancing cost...
متن کاملCredit Risk and IFRS : The Case of Credit Default Swaps
Theory predicts that the accounting information transparency affects credit spreads. Given that one of the putative benefits of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) is transparency of accounting information, this study evaluates the impact of IFRS on the pricing of credit spreads in the over-the-counter Credit Default Swap (CDS) market. Using a difference in differences methodolog...
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 کاملCredit Default Swaps and Risk-Shifting
Credit default swaps (CDSs) are thought to ease borrowing by protecting lenders against default. This paper develops a model of the demand for CDS when borrowers choose the riskiness of investment and verification is imperfect. The model shows that CDSs may lead to risk-shifting, increasing the probability of default. Our model provides new insights on the role of CDS during the recent financia...
متن کاملSovereign Credit Risk with Endogenous Default
This paper provides a model of sovereign default risk pricing, in which a sovereign country endogenously determines the timing of default on its external debt. The theoretical relationships between credit risk and the macro-variables considered in the model are consistent with the empirical literature. The model also helps to explain the variation across time in Emerging Market Bond Index (EMBI...
