9、ended to allow defaults to take pace more frequentlyInstead of assuming a constant unconditional probability of default we can assume a constant default intensity or a particular pattern for the variation of default probabilities with time.With several bonds we can use more parameters to describe th

10、e term structure of default probability.The Risk-Free RateThe risk-free rate when default probabilities are estimated is usually assumed to be the LIBOR/swap zero rate(or sometimes 10 bps below them)To get direct estimates of the spread of bond yields over swap rates we can look at asset swapsAsset

11、SwapsAsset swap spreads provide a direct estimate of the spread of bond yields over the LIBOR/swap curve.If the asset swap spread is 150 bps and the LIBOR/swap zero curve is flat at 5%.The expected loss from default over the 5-year life of the bond is therefore$6.55.6.55=288.48*Q,Q=2.27%Credit Defau

14、 as a companys credit rating declines.Real World vs.Risk-Neutral Default ProbabilitiesThe default probabilities backed out of bond prices or credit default swap spreads are risk-neutral default probabilitiesThe default probabilities backed out of historical data are real-world default probabilitiesP

15、ossible reasons for these resultsCorporate bonds are relatively illiquidThe subjective default probabilities of bond traders may be much higher than the estimates from Moodys historical dataBonds do not default independently of each other.This leads to systematic risk that cannot be diversified away

16、.Bond returns are highly skewed with limited upside.The non-systematic risk is difficult to diversify away and may be priced by the market.Which world should we use?We should use risk-neutral estimates for valuing credit derivatives and estimating the present value of the cost of defaultWe should us

22、算出贝尔斯登的风险中性违约概率和公司价值的概率分布。贝尔斯登于2008年3月14日被摩根大通接管。下图显示，市场对贝尔斯登一周后的命运产生巨大分歧，公司价值大涨大跌的概率远远大于小幅变动的概率，这样的分布与正常情况的分布有天壤之别。可见期权价格可以让我们清楚地看出市场在非常时期对未来的特殊看法。贝尔斯登风险中性违约概率和公司价值概率分布（2008年3月14日）风险中性违约概率风险中性违约概率虽然不同于现实概率，但其变化可以反映现实世界违约概率的变化。在金融危机时期，它可能比CDS价差能更敏感地反映出违约概率的变化。在贝尔斯登于2008年3月14日被接管前后，根据上述方法计算出来的风险中性概率每

23、天的变化比CDS的价差更敏感。这是因为在金融危机期间，金融机构自身的信用度大幅降低，造成在OTC市场交易的CDS交易量急剧萎缩，价差大幅扩大，信号失真。期权隐含的中性违约概率与CDS价差Credit Risk MitigationNetting:incremental effectCollateralizationDowngrade triggersDefault correlationThe credit default correlation between two companies is a measure of their tendency to default at about t
