Abstract

This study explores the complex dynamics between equity and corporate bond markets, focusing on their correlation's decomposition into credit risk and interest rate sensitivity components. By utilizing equity-credit default swap and equity-sovereign bond correlations, this research identifies macroeconomic factors—such as growth and inflation uncertainties—that influence these interactions across different credit qualities and market regimes. Empirical findings reveal significant variations in the equity-corporate bond correlation during periods of market stress and rising interest rates. Additionally, we propose two novel dynamic hedging strategies, leveraging adaptive hedge ratios to isolate credit risk while mitigating interest rate exposure. The results demonstrate that these strategies outperform traditional approaches, offering robust tools for portfolio management amidst fluctuating economic conditions.
