Abstract

A credit risk mathematical model is investigated. Under regular conditions, a different recovery scheme is proposed, which is an extension of the recovery of treasury value scheme (RTV) with time‐continuous liquidation. Assuming that a function depends on the optimal time for the liquidation and the recovery rate, we obtain the functional expression of the risky bond price. When the firm value follows a jump‐diffusion process with a Log‐exponentially distributed jump, we develop a method to obtain the optimal default probability with time‐continuous liquidation.
