Some short elements on hedging credit derivatives

Philippe Durand, Jean-Frédéric Jouanin (2007)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

In practice, it is well known that hedging a derivative instrument can never be perfect. In the case of credit derivatives ( synthetic CDO tranche products), a trader will have to face some specific difficulties. The first one is the inconsistence between most of the existing pricing models, where the risk is the occurrence of defaults, and the real hedging strategy, where the trader will protect his portfolio against small CDS spread movements. The second one, which is the main subject...

Pricing forward-start options in the HJM framework; evidence from the Polish market

P. Sztuba, A. Weron (2001)

Applicationes Mathematicae

Similarity:

We show how to use the Gaussian HJM model to price modified forward-start options. Using data from the Polish market we calibrate the model and price this exotic option on the term structure. The specific problems of Central Eastern European emerging markets do not permit the use of the popular lognormal models of forward LIBOR or swap rates. We show how to overcome this difficulty.

Generalized CreditRisk+ model and applications

Jakub Szotek (2015)

Annales Universitatis Paedagogicae Cracoviensis. Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

In the paper we give a mathematical overview of the CreditRisk+ model as a tool used for calculating credit risk in a portfolio of debts and suggest some other applications of the same method of analysis.

Beliefs about beliefs, a theory for stochastic assessment of subjective probabilities.

James M. Dickey (1980)

Trabajos de Estadística e Investigación Operativa

Similarity:

Parameterized families of subjective probability distributions can be used to great advantage to model beliefs of experts, especially when such models include dependence on concomitant variables. In one such model, probabilities of simple events can be expressed in loglinear form. In another, a generalization of the multivariate t distribution has concomitant variables entering linearly through the location vector. Interactive interview methods for assessing this second model and matrix...

Large losses-probability minimizing approach

Michał Baran (2004)

Applicationes Mathematicae

Similarity:

The probability minimizing problem for large losses of portfolio in discrete and continuous time models is studied. This gives a generalization of quantile hedging presented in [3].
