Download or read book Pricing and Risk Management of Synthetic CDOs written by Anna Schlösser and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-02-04 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book considers the one-factor copula model for credit portfolios that are used for pricing synthetic CDO structures as well as for risk management and measurement applications involving the generation of scenarios for the complete universe of risk factors and the inclusion of CDO structures in a portfolio context. For this objective, it is especially important to have a computationally fast model that can also be used in a scenario simulation framework. The well known Gaussian copula model is extended in various ways in order to improve its drawbacks of correlation smile and time inconsistency. Also the application of the large homogeneous cell assumption, that allows to differentiate between rating classes, makes the model convenient and powerful for practical applications. The Crash-NIG extension introduces an important regime-switching feature allowing the possibility of a market crash that is characterized by a high-correlation regime.

Book Synopsis Measuring the Credit Risk of Synthetic CDOs with CDS-Implied Ratings by : David T. Hamilton
Download or read book Measuring the Credit Risk of Synthetic CDOs with CDS-Implied Ratings written by David T. Hamilton and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this paper, we demonstrate how CDS-implied ratings for corporate reference names, together with an analytic CDO ratings model, can be used to derive CDS-implied tranche ratings for corporate synthetic CDOs (CSOs). It is an experiment in which we change one key variable, the ratings of the portfolio of reference entities, while holding other data and model assumptions constant and measure how tranche ratings perform. We find that CDS-implied tranche ratings lead changes in Moody's ratings, more accurately rank order default losses by rating, and exhibit higher loss prediction accuracy ratios for the riskiest tranches.

Book Synopsis Synthetic CDO Pricing by : Conghui Hu
Download or read book Synthetic CDO Pricing written by Conghui Hu and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The underlying asset pool of collateral debt obligations (CDOs) simultaneously encompasses credit risk and market risk. However, the standard CDO pricing model not only underestimates the risk to the asset pool due to a poor description of the correlation structure among obligors but is also incapable of reflecting the impacts of interdependent markets, credit risks and systematic sudden shocks on the asset pool. This paper studies the joint impact of interrelated market and credit risk factors on the key inputs of CDO pricing (default probability, default correlation and default loss rate) under the framework of factor copula CDO pricing model and constructs a risk-integrated model for CDO pricing. In addition, we extend the static integrated model to a dynamic version by allowing the risk factors driven by the copula-GARCH process. The simulation results show that, compared with an integrated model, the premium of senior tranches is significantly lower under the standard model. Such difference is mainly due to different assumptions of the distributions of risk-driving factor.
Book Synopsis The Credit Risk Transfer Market and Stability Implications for U.K. Financial Institutions by : Li L. Ong
Download or read book The Credit Risk Transfer Market and Stability Implications for U.K. Financial Institutions written by Li L. Ong and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2006-06 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The increasing ability to trade credit risk in financial markets has facilitated its dispersion across the financial and other sectors. However, specific risks attached to credit risk transfer (CRT) instruments in a market with still-limited liquidity means that its rapid expansion may actually pose problems for financial sector stability in the event of a major negative shock to credit markets. This paper attempts to quantify the exposure of major U.K. financial groups to credit derivatives, by applying a vector autoregression (VAR) model to publicly available market prices. Our results indicate that use of credit derivatives does not pose a substantial threat to financial sector stability in the United Kingdom. Exposures across major financial institutions appear sufficiently diversified to limit the impact of any shock to the market, while major insurance companies are largely exposed to the "safer" senior tranches.
