Abstract

We develop a portfolio credit risk model that includes firm‐specific Markov‐switching regimes as well as individual stochastic and endogenous recovery rates. Using weekly credit default swap premiums for 35 financial firms, we analyze the credit risk of each of these companies and their statistical linkages, putting emphasis on the 2005–2012 period. Moreover, we study the systemic risk affecting both the banking and insurance subsectors.
