Course Objectives: | This course aims to introduce students to the models used in the management of portfolio credit risk. Models currently used in the market are explored and an undrstanding of default dependence is acquired. The use of credit models to determine capital adequacy is shown and an introduction to credit derivatives is given. |
The students who have succeeded in this course; On completion of the course the student will be able to demosntrate and understanding of credit risk, explain how dependence is modelled in credit portfolios, describe methods for calculating the protfolio loss distribution and will have some idea about credit derivatives. |
Review of financial derivatives, introduction to credit risk, Merton's model for default of a firm, KMV, CreditMetrics and CreditRisk+ models, showing dependence between defaults with factor models, calculating portfolio credit loss distribution,calibration amd inference for credit risk models, introduction to credit derivatives. |
