Two models of stochastic loss given default
نویسندگان
چکیده
We propose two structural models for stochastic loss given default that allow the credit losses of a portfolio of defaultable financial instruments to be modeled. The credit losses are integrated into a structural model of default events accounting for correlations between the default events and the associated losses. We show how the models can be calibrated and analyze the impact of correlations between the occurrences of defaults and recoveries by testing our models for a representative sample portfolio.

An option theoretic model for ultimate loss-given-default with systematic recovery risk and stochastic returns on defaulted debt, October 2011
Loss-given-default (LGD), the loss severity on defaulted obligations, is a critical component of risk management, pricing and portfolio models of credit. This is among the three primary determinants of credit risk, the other two being the probability of default (PD) and exposure of default (EAD). However, LGD has not been as extensively studied, and is considered a much more daunting modeling c...

This paper develops default priors for Bayesian analysis that reproduce familiar frequentist and Bayesian analyses for models that are exponential or location. For the vector parameter case there is an information adjustment that avoids the Bayesian marginalization paradoxes and properly targets the prior on the parameter of interest thus adjusting for any complicating nonlinearity the details ...
متن کاملA generic framework for stochastic Loss-Given-Default
In this document a method is discussed to incorporate stochastic Loss-Given-Default (LGD) in factor models, i.e. structural models for credit risk. The general idea exhibited in this text is to introduce a common dependence of the LGD and the probability of default (PD) on a latent variable, representing the systemic risk. Though our theory can be applied to any arbitrary firm-value model and a...
متن کاملValuation of portfolio credit derivatives and data - based default prediction
To my parents and to Diana Preface Credit derivatives play a major role in financial markets. To price these complex products objectively advanced mathematical models are needed. In this thesis we focus on the modelling and valuation of two portfolio credit derivatives: n th-to-default credit default swaps (CDSs) and collateralised debt obligations (CDOs). The key input parameters of these mode...

According to the adverse consequences that are brought by financial distress for companies, economy and financial –monetary institutions, the use of methods that can predict the occurrence of financial failure and prevent the loss of wealth is of great importance. The major models of credit risk assessment are based on retrospective information and using the methods which use the updated market...
