2 2/29 General context of the problem Firm 1 (S 1 ) - Counterparty; Firm 2 (S 2 ) - Investor Counterparty Credit Risk: risk of a party to a financial contract defaulting prior to/at the contract s expiration Credit Value Adjustment (): 1 = (1 R 1 )E ( 1 (τ1 min(τ 2,T ))Ψ + (τ 1 ; S 3, T ) ) Ψ ( ) - disc. value of OTC contract on S 3 (underlying asset) τ j = inf {t 0 : S j (t) K j }, j = 1, 2 R j - recovery rate Asset j, j = 1, 2 Motivation Regulatory framework - Bilateral vs Unilateral CCR not fully mitigated by collateral 65% losses from CCR due to during the financial crisis
