CVA calculation for CDS on super senior ABS CDO
Abstract
The way monoline insurers estimate the FAS 157 credit value adjustments (CVA) on their ABS CDO insurance portfolios vastly overstates the benefits. We propose a simple method that is more accurate, especially when the counterparty default risk is high. The counterparty default recovery rate is also a critical input.Download Info
