Later, we will investigate first- and second-to-defaults regarding their dependence on the chosen time horizon, hereby relying on dependent default times. For the moment, we restrict ourselves to the one-year horizon in order to keep the exposition simple and reduced to certain aspects of these products. As a consequence, we suppress the time index for CWIs. For the duo basket, the question arises what first- and second-todefault means in terms of event probabilities and corresponding losses in the context of our example.
1. 22) we use the mean-squared distance. 7. 11 shows how well the NHCTMC model-based PD term structures fit the empirical/observed multi-year default frequencies from S&P. 11 is that the HCTMC approach relies on observed migration rates only, whereas the NHCTMC approach relies on observed migration rates for the calibration of the generator Q as well as on observed multi-year default frequencies for finding α- and β-vectors such that the NHCTMC approach best possible approximates observed multiyear default frequencies.
Before we close this section we want to briefly comment on the influ(1) (1) ence of PDs and the correlation impact on p1st and p2nd . 4 illustrate the dependence of p1st and p2nd on the CWI correlation ̺. 4. 4 Remark The first-to-default probability attains its maximum in case of zero CWI correlation, whereas the second-to-default probability attains its maximum in case of perfect correlation. 3: 37 (1) Influence of the CWI correlation on p1st Later in this book we will re-discover this fact and interpret it by saying that an investor taking the first default or loss in a basket or CDO is in a worst case scenario if assets default in a completely independent way because that makes defaults in a basket most unpredictable.
