We develop a framework for modeling conditional loss distributions through the introduction of risk factor dynamics. Asset value changes of a credit portfolio are linked to a dynamic global macroeconometric model, allowing macro effects to be isolated from idiosyncratic shocks. Default...

Insolvency systems play a crucial role in protection of creditor rights, yet micro-level empirical evidence on the … functioning of insolvency regimes worldwide is sparse.
