Hazard rate for credit risk and hedging defaultable contingent claims
نویسندگان
چکیده
We provide a concise exposition of theoretical results that appear in modeling default time as a random time, we study in details the invariance martingale property and we establish a representation theorem which leads, in a complete market setting, to the hedging portfolio of a vulnerable claim. Our main result is that, to hedge a defaultable claim one has to invest the value of this contingent claim in the defaultable zero-coupon.

Hedging 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 کاملHedging of Credit Derivatives in Models with Totally Unexpected Default
The paper presents an overview of methods of hedging defaultable derivatives under the assumption that there exist tradeable assets with dynamics allowing for elimination of default risk of derivative securities. We investigate hedging strategies in alternative frameworks with different degrees of generality, an abstract semimartingale framework and a more specific Markovian set-up, and we use ...
متن کاملPde Approach to Valuation and Hedging of Credit Derivatives
Our aim is to examine the PDE approach to the valuation and hedging of a defaultable claim in various settings; this allows us to emphasize the importance of the choice of the traded assets. We start with a general model for the dynamics of the traded primary assets. Subsequently, we specify particular models and we deal with particular defaultable claims such as, for instance, survival claims....
متن کاملPricing contingent claims with credit risk: Asymptotic expansion approach
The pricing problem of credit derivatives has received much attention in the last decade. An important unresolved problem, however, is the pricing of credit derivatives under the general environment in which the interest rate process and the hazard rate process are stochastic. This article addresses the pricing problems of credit derivatives (defaultable bonds, default swaps, and default option...
متن کاملHedging of defaultable claims in a structural model using a locally risk-minimizing approach
In the context of a locally risk-minimizing approach, the problem of hedging defaultable claims and their Föllmer-Schweizer decompositions are discussed in a structural model. This is done when the underlying process is a finite variation Lévy process and the claims pay a predetermined payout at maturity, contingent on no prior default. More precisely, in this particular framework, the locally ...
