Basket Default Swaps Pricing Based on the Normal Inverse Gaussian Distribution
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, a normal inverse Gaussian factor model is developed to describe the fat-tailed feature of the default distribution of reference entities in order to study basket default swaps pricing. Based on this model, the explicit formula for the distribution of the kth default time is accurately obtained by making use of order statistics, and the closed forms of the price of BDS at the kth default and m out of n default entities are calculated using the risk-neutral pricing principle.

An Application of Genetic Network Programming Model for Pricing of Basket Default Swaps (BDS)
The credit derivatives market has experienced remarkable growth over the past decade. As such, there is a growing interest in tools for pricing of the most prominent credit derivative, the credit default swap (CDS). In this paper, we propose a heuristic algorithm for pricing of basket default swaps (BDS). For this purpose, genetic network programming (GNP), which is one of the recent evolutiona...
متن کاملCopula based simulation procedures for pricing basket Credit Derivatives
This paper deals with the impact of structure of dependency and the choice of procedures for rareevent simulation on the pricing of multi-name credit derivatives such as n to default swap and Collateralized Debt Obligations (CDO). The correlation between names defaulting has an effect on the value of the basket credit derivatives. We present a copula based simulation procedure for pricing baske...
متن کاملBasket Default Swaps, CDO’s and Factor Copulas
We consider a factor approach to the pricing of basket credit derivatives and synthetic CDO tranches. Our purpose is to deal in a convenient way with dependent defaults for a large number of names. We provide semi-explicit expressions of the stochastic intensities of default times and pricing formulae for basket default swaps and CDO tranches. Two cases are studied in detail: mean-variance mixt...
متن کاملRecursive valuation of Basket Default Swaps
In this paper we consider an analytical valuation of Basket Default Swaps. Our solution is based on a continuous-time model in a conditional independence framework. We use the order statistics of the default times of the names in the basket to find a recursive algorithm for computation of the risk-neutral distribution of the default process of the basket. We derive an analytical expression for ...
متن کاملFast Pricing of Basket Default Swaps
A basket default swap is a derivative security tied to an underlying basket of corporate bonds or other assets subject to credit risk. The value of the contract depends on the joint distribution of the default times of the underlying assets. Valuing a basket default swap often entails Monte Carlo simulation of these default times. For baskets of high-quality credits and for swaps that require m...
