Optimal Portfolios with Defaultable Securities A Firm Value Approach
نویسندگان
چکیده
Credit risk is an important issue of current research in finance. While there is a lot of work on modelling credit risk and on valuing credit derivatives there is no work on continuous-time portfolio optimization with defautable securities. Therefore, in this paper we solve investment problems with defautable bonds and stocks. Besides, our approach can be applied to portfolio problems, where the investor has the opportunity to put her wealth into derivatives with counterparty risk or credit derivatives.

Credit Risky Securities Valuation under a Contagion Model with Interacting Intensities
We study a three-firm contagion model with counterparty risk and apply this model to price defaultable bonds and credit default swap CDS . This model assumes that default intensities are driven by external common factors as well as other defaults in the system. Using the “total hazard” approach, default times can be generated and the joint density function is obtained. We represent the pricing ...
متن کاملHedging of Defaultable Claims
The goal of these lectures is to present a survey of recent developments in the practically important and challenging area of hedging credit risk. In a companion work, Bielecki et al. (2004a), we presented techniques and results related to the valuation of defaultable claims. It should be emphasized that in most existing papers on credit risk, the risk-neutral valuation of defaultable claims is...
متن کاملValuation Models for Default-Risky Securities: An Overview
Because the contractual features of defaultable securities are usually complex and it may be difficult to find comparable securities for which to observe prices, valuation based on simple rules of thumb is often infea-sible. For example, one may have to value an interest rate swap subject to termination if one of the parties has its credit downgraded, and there are no comparable swaps that one ...
متن کاملCredit Risk Modeling with Misreporting and Incomplete Information
We propose a structural model for the valuation of defaultable securities of a firm which models the effect of deliberate misreporting done by insiders in the firm and unobserved by others. We derive exact formulas for equity and bond prices and approximate expressions for the conditional default probability, recovery rate, and credit spread under the proposed credit risk framework. We propose ...
متن کاملCorrelated Defaults and the Valuation of Defaultable Securities
We present an intensity-based model of correlated defaults with application to the valuation of defaultable securities. The model assumes that the conditional hazard rate of default is driven by external common factors as well as other defaults in the system. A proposed recursive procedure can be used to generate default times with a broad class of correlation structures. We compare this approa...
