Abstract

This paper studies the reaction of the CDS market to the release of periodic financial reports. The results show that periodic financial reports contain valuable information for the CDS market. This finding supports the value relevance of accounting information for the CDS market. We also find that the reaction of the CDS market to the information content of periodic financial reports is with delay. This implies that the limited attention phenomenon characterizes the CDS market.
