Short credit spreads under different types of filtration expansions

Short credit spreads under different types of filtration expansions
Short credit spreads under different types of filtration expansions
The relations between intensity, credit risk models, and filtration expansions, with an emphasis on information based models, are explained. First, the mathematical properties of two types of intensity are precisely investigated under different levels of information. The economical interpretation and the connection betweenthese two types of intensity are already known under progressive filtration expansions. However accepting this type of filtration expansion requires a progressive knowledge of the reference filtration for investors which is not economically appealing. This problem is resolved under a more general filtration expansion that covers both progressive and minimal filtration expansion (which is consistent with economical observations) as special cases.

Abstract

The relations between intensity, credit risk models, and filtration expansions, with an emphasis on information based models, are explained. First, the mathematical properties of two types of intensity are precisely investigated under different levels of information. The economical interpretation and the connection betweenthese two types of intensity are already known under progressive filtration expansions. However accepting this type of filtration expansion requires a progressive knowledge of the reference filtration for investors which is not economically appealing. This problem is resolved under a more general filtration expansion that covers both progressive and minimal filtration expansion (which is consistent with economical observations) as special cases.
