Single Name Credit Default Swaptions Meet Single Sided Jump Models
نویسندگان
چکیده
Credit risk modeling is about modeling losses. These losses are typically coming unexpectedly and triggered by shocks. So any process modeling the stochastic nature of losses should reasonable include jumps. In this paper we review a few jump driven models for the valuation of CDSs and show how under these dynamic models also pricing of (exotic) derivatives on single name CDSs is possible. More precisely, we set up fundamental firm-value models that allow for fast pricing of the ’vanillas’ of the CDS derivative markets: payer and receiver swaptions. It turns out that the proposed model is able to produce realistic implied volatility smiles. Moreover, we detail how a CDS spread simulator can be set up under this framework and illustrate its use for the pricing of exotic derivatives on single name CDSs as underliers.

Pricing Constant Maturity Credit Default Swaps Under Jump Dynamics
In this paper we discuss the pricing of Constant Maturity Credit Default Swaps (CMCDS) under single sided jump models. The CMCDS offers default protection in exchange for a floating premium which is periodically reset and indexed to the market spread on a CDS with constant maturity tenor written on the same reference name. By setting up a firm value model based on single sided Lévy models we ca...
متن کاملCredit Spreads, Optimal Capital Structure, and Implied Volatility with Endogenous Default and Jump Risk
We propose a two-sided jump model for credit risk by extending the Leland-Toft endogenous default model based on the geometric Brownian motion. The model shows that jump risk and endogenous default can have significant impacts on credit spreads, optimal capital structure, and implied volatility of equity options: (1) The jump and endogenous default can produce a variety of non-zero credit sprea...
متن کاملEfficient Pricing Routines of Credit Default Swaps in a Structural Default Model with Jumps
In this paper, we present two efficient algorithms for pricing credit default swaps based on a structural default model. In our model, the value of the firm is assumed to be the exponential of a jump-diffusion process. Our first algorithm to price a credit default swap within this framework is an efficient and unbiased Monte Carlo simulation. An excellent performance is obtained by first simula...
متن کاملValuation of Credit Default Swap and Swaptions
This paper presents a conceptual framework for valuation of single-name credit derivatives, and recuperates, in some cases generalizing, a few of known results in credit risk theory. Valuation is viewed with respect to a given state price and relative to a general numeraire. Survival probabilities and default recoveries are considered as processes adapted to a subfiltration, following Jeanblanc...
