We derive a closed-form expression for the bilateral credit valuation adjustment of a credit default swap in presence of simultaneous defaults. We develop our analysis under a default intensity model specified by a class of three-dimensional subordinators, allowing for default dependence through...

We consider the optimal portfolio problem of a power investor who wishes to allocate her wealth between several credit default swaps (CDSs) and a money market account. We model contagion risk among the reference entities in the portfolio using a reduced form Markovian model with interacting...

We obtain an explicit formula for the bilateral counterparty valuation adjustment of a credit default swaps portfolio referencing an asymptotically large number of entities.We perform the analysis under a doubly stochastic intensity framework, allowing for default correlation through a common...

We develop a model of endogenous collateral requirements in the credit default swap (CDS) market. Our model provides an interpretation for the empirical findings of Capponi et al. (2020), according to which extreme tail risk measures have a higher explanatory power for observed collateral...
