Although the cost of financial distress is a central issue in capital structure and credit risk studies, reliable estimates of its size are difficult to come by. This paper proposes a novel method of extracting the cost of default from the change in the market value of a firm's assets upon...

We extend the Hidden Markov Model for defaults of Crowder, Davis, and Giampieri (2005) to include covariates. The covariates enhance the prediction of transition probabilities from high to low default regimes. To estimate the model, we extend the EM estimating equations to account for the time...

For nearly two years, the two of us have had a running discussion of the costs and benefits of automatic stays in bankruptcy for qualified financial contracts (QFCs) such as derivatives and repurchase agreements, particularly those held by systemically important major dealer banks. Under current...

In the recent theoretical literature on lending risk, the coordination problem in multi-creditor relationships have been analyzed extensively. We address this topic empirically, relying on a unique panel data set that includes detailed credit-file information on distressed lending relationships...

How does bank distress impact their customers' probability of default and trade credit availability? We address this … question by looking at a unique sample of German firms from 2000 to 2011. We follow their firm-bank relationships through times … of distress and crisis, featuring the different transmission of bank distress shocks into already weakened firm balance …

We exploit the outset of a regulation seeking to improve judicial efficiency through the rearrangement of courts … reform on both judicial efficiency and Non-Performing Loans ratio. Furthermore, we identify heterogeneous effects based on … indirectly (through judicial efficiency) and directly, thereby influencing borrowers who react to the perceived enforcement. …

This paper proposes a machine learning approach to estimate physical forward default intensities. Default probabilities are computed using artificial neural networks to estimate the intensities of the inhomogeneous Poisson processes governing default process. The major contribution to previous...
