2 Uses of Muni Credit Default Swaps Buy credit protection for a municipal asset / portfolio Buying protection through CDS can eliminate or reduce credit risk without having to sell an asset The term of the CDS may be shorter than that of the asset if the investor is concerned about default risk only over the short- or intermediate-term Source of synthetic municipal credit exposure Seller of protection is paid to assume municipal default risk The CDS market makes it possible to short a municipal credit If an investor believes spreads will widen out, buying credit protection will lead to mark-tomarket gains on the purchased protection if CDS spreads widen Manage credit capacity Buy protection on credits in which an investor is full but wishes to buy more assets CDS are unfunded so leverage is possible Investor does not have to buy an asset to assume credit exposure 1
3 Muni CDS Quotes The most commonly-quoted maturity is 10 years Some sample muni CDS quotes from Lehman Brothers (1) 10 Year Muni CDS Quotes Reference Entity California G.O. Delaware G.O.

4 Pricing Considerations Since a credit default swap is an instrument which allows the transfer of default risk, the compensation that an investor should demand for assuming a credit risk and the premium that a hedger should be willing to pay to remove a credit risk should be linked to the magnitude of that credit risk The magnitude of a credit risk can be defined in terms of The likelihood of default The size of the payoff or loss following default The greater the probability of default and the greater the loss following a default, the higher are credit default swap spreads, all other things equal Factors that tend to increase or decrease credit default swap spreads relative to cash bond spreads Delivery option: buyer is long a delivery option, which tends to increase CDS spreads relative to bond credit spreads Funding / leverage: Default swaps are unfunded transactions which can be used to provide leverage, a fact which will generally decrease CDS spreads relative to cash bond credit spreads Taxability of income: Premium payments on a credit default swap are taxable, a fact that generally tends to increase the level of CDS spreads demanded by sellers relative to tax-exempt cash bond credit spreads Supply and demand: Dislocations between supply and demand in the credit default swap market can put upward or downward pressure on CDS spreads relative to cash bond spreads 3
5 CDS Mark-to-Market Value Just like a cash bond position, a CDS has a mark-to-market value that may fluctuate The mark-to-market value of a credit default swap depends on several key variables, including the remaining term of the swap, the spread on the existing swap, the current market spread for an identical swap through the scheduled maturity date, and the risky PV01 of the swap Example: An investor sells credit protection on an issuer through a 5-year credit default swap with a spread of 20bps and after 1 year has passed would like to determine the mark-to-market value of this swap After 1 year, there are 4 years remaining on the swap and the current market spread for a 4-year swap is 15bps The investor has a gain of 5bps because they are receiving 20bps per year under the existing swap, compared to the 15bps that is available in the current market Question: What is this 5 basis point gain worth? The answer is not simply the present value of 5bps per year for the remaining 4 years This is because the CDS premium payments stop upon the occurrence of a credit event Thus, each scheduled premium payment must be adjusted by the probability that a credit event will occur prior to each payment (in which case the payment would not be received) each payment is a risky cash flow, hence it is necessary to use a risky PV01 A pricing model is necessary to determine the risky PV01 MTM for a seller of protection = (Existing Spread - Current Market Spread) x Risky PV01 MTM for a buyer of protection = (Current Market Spread - Existing Spread) x Risky PV01 A market-to-market gain or loss may be realized or locked-in by terminating the existing swap or by entering in to a new, offsetting default swap 4
