Default and Recovery Risk Dependencies in a Simple Credit Risk Model

Abstract

This paper provides evidence for the relationship between credit quality, recovery rate, and correlation. The paper finds that rating grade, rating shift, and macroeconomic factors provide a highly significant explanation for default risk and recovery risk of US bond issues. The empirical data suggest that default and recovery processes are highly correlated. Therefore, a joint approach is required for estimating time-varying default probabilities and recovery rates that are conditional on default. This paper develops and applies such a model.
