Book excerpt: A difficulty which arises when implementing structural bond pricing models is the estimation of the value and risk of the firm's assets - neither of which is directly observable. We perform a simulation experiment in order to evaluate a maximum likelihood method applicable to this problem. The properties of the bond price estimators are examined using four theoretical bond pricing models: the Black amp; Scholes (1973) / Merton (1974) model, the Leland amp; Toft (1996) model, the Briys amp; de Varenne (1997) model, as well as the Ericsson amp; Reneby (2001) model. We contrast the performance of the maximum likelihood estimators to that of estimators traditionally used in academia and industry. The results are strongly supportive of the maximum likelihood approach. In fact, the inefficiency of the traditional estimator may explain the failure of past attempts to implement structural bond pricing models.

Book Synopsis Structural Models of Corporate Bond Pricing with Maximum Likelihood Estimation by : Ka Leung Li
Download or read book Structural Models of Corporate Bond Pricing with Maximum Likelihood Estimation written by Ka Leung Li and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 51 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper empirically examines the proxy, volatility-restriction (VR) and maximum likelihood (ML) approaches to implementing structural corporate bond pricing models, and documents that ML estimation is the best among the three implementation methods. Empirical studies using either the proxy approach or the VR method conclude that barrier-independent models significantly underestimate corporate bond yields. Although barrier-dependent models tend to overestimate the yield on average, they generate a sizable degree of underestimation. The present paper shows that the proxy approach is an upwardly biased estimator of the corporate assets and makes the empirical framework work systematically against structural models of corporate bond pricing. The VR approach may generate inconsistent corporate bond prices or may fail to give a positive corporate bond price for some structural models. When the Merton, LS, BD and LT models are implemented with ML estimation, we find substantial improvement in their performances. Our empirical analysis shows that the LT model is very accurate for predicting short-term bond yields, whereas the LS and BD models are good predictors for medium-term and long-term bonds. The Merton model however significantly overestimates short-term bond yields and underestimates long-term bond yields. Unlike empirical studies in the past, the Merton model implemented with ML estimation does not consistently underestimate corporate bond yields.

Book Synopsis Estimating the Cost of U.S. Indexed Bonds by : Silverio Foresi
Download or read book Estimating the Cost of U.S. Indexed Bonds written by Silverio Foresi and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 29 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper presents an equilibrium bond pricing model driven by two stochastic factors: the real interest rate and the expected rate of inflation. The model's parameters are estimated using a maximum likelihood technique based on a Kalman filter. Data on nominal U.S. Treasury securities and Survey of Professional Forecasters predictions of the GDP deflator are employed to identify the separate effects of real and nominal variables. The market prices of real interest rate risk and inflation risk are estimated, which allows us to construct yield curves for nominal and indexed U.S. Treasury securities. The relative costs of nominal and indexed bonds can then be assessed.

Download or read book An Empirical Analysis of Structural Models of Corporate Debt Pricing written by João C. A. Teixeira and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 43 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper tests empirically the performance of three structural models of corporate bond pricing, namely Merton (1974), Leland (1994) and Fan and Sundaresan (2000). While the first two models overestimate bond prices, the Fan and Sundaresan model reveals an extremely good performance. When considering the prediction of credit spreads, the three models under-estimate market spreads but, again, Fan and Sundaresan has a better performance. We find rating, maturity and asset volatility effects in the prediction power, as the models under-estimate less the spreads of riskier firms and of bonds with better rating quality and longer maturity. Moreover, our results reveal the existence of a new industry effect. Spread errors are systematically related to some bond- and firm-specific variables, as well as term structure variables.
Book Synopsis A Comparison of Bond Pricing Models in the Pricing of Credit Risk by : Miikka Tauren
Download or read book A Comparison of Bond Pricing Models in the Pricing of Credit Risk written by Miikka Tauren and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 53 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper compares alternative default-free bond pricing models in their abilities to price the credit risk of companies. The theoretical framework is the reduced-form approach of Duffie and Singleton (1999). The parameters of a CKLS (1992) type stochastic differential equation that describes the dynamics of the credit spreads on coupon bonds are estimated by using the GMM. The data are credit spreads of 112 coupon bonds from 26 companies over the period 1986-1994. The estimation takes into account biases toward mean reversion induced by the unit-root problem and survivorship. The findings support most strongly the Brennan and Schwartz (1980) model that implies credit spreads which are mean-reverting and lognormally distributed.
