Counterparty Risk and the Pricing of Defaultable Securities
Motivated by recent financial crises in East Asia and the U.S. where the downfall of a small number of firms had an economy-wide impact, this paper generalizes existing reduced-form models to include default intensities dependent on the default of a counterparty. In this model, firms have correlated defaults due not only to an exposure to common risk factors, but also to firm-specific risks tha...
متن کاملOptimal Portfolios with Defaultable Securities A Firm Value Approach
Credit risk is an important issue of current research in finance.

Therefore, in this paper we solve investment problems with defautable bonds and stocks. Besides, our approach can be applied to portfolio problems, where th...

A proposed recursive procedure can be used to generate default times with a broad class of correlation structures. We compare this approa...

Our results show that this sort of illiquidity causes significant...
