Dynamic Hedging of Portfolio Credit Risk in a Markov Copula Model
We consider a bottom-up Markovian copula model of portfolio credit risk where dependence among credit names mainly stems from the possibility of simultaneous defaults. Due to the Markovian copula nature of the model, calibration of marginals and dependence parameters can be performed separately using a two-steps procedure, much like in a standard static copula set-up. In addition, the model adm...
متن کاملDynamic Modeling of Portfolio Credit Risk with Common Shocks
We consider a bottom-up Markovian model of portfolio credit risk where dependence among credit names stems from the possibility of simultaneous defaults. A common shocks interpretation of the model is possible so that efficient convolution recursion procedures are available for pricing and hedging CDO tranches, conditionally on any given state of the Markov model. Calibration of marginals and d...
متن کاملDynamic Hedging of Synthetic CDO Tranches: Bridging the gap between theory and practice
This paper intends to provide insights about the topical issue of risk managing synthetic CDOs. We stand in the grey zone between mathematical finance and financial econometrics, between academic and market practitioners approaches. We chose to first present two scholar models, each of them leading to perfect replication of CDO tranches with credit default swaps. Though they rely upon rather si...
متن کاملThe static hedging of CDO tranche correlation risk
This article gives examples illustrating the static hedging of CDO correlation risk. Changes in correlation result in changes in the relative portioning out of the total expected loss of a reference portfolio to the different tranches. Thus, portfolios with low correlation risk contains a number of CDO tranches whose weights are adjusted so that the daily changes in the mark-tomarket values of ...
متن کاملRecent Advancements in the Theory and Practice of Credit Derivatives
In the Black-Cox model, a firm makes default when its value hits an exponential barrier. Here, we propose an hybrid model that generalizes this framework. The default intensity can take two different values and switches when the firm value crosses the barrier. Of course, the intensity level is higher below the barrier. We get an analytic formula for the Laplace transform of the default time and...
