Credit Default Swap Markets In The Global Economy An Empirical Analysis | Economics

This book provides a comprehensive overview for various segments of the global credit default swap (CDS) markets touching upon how they were affected by the recent financial turmoil. The book uses empirical analysis on credit default swap markets applying advanced econometric methodologies to the time series data. It covers not only well-studied sovereign credit default swap markets but also sector credit default swap indices (i.e. CDS index for the banking sector) and corporate credit default swap indices (i.e. Markit i Traxx Japan CDS index) which have not been fully examined by the previous literature. The book also investigates causality and co-movement among several credit default swap markets or between CDS and other financial markets. |Credit Default Swap Markets in the Global Economy An Empirical Analysis | Economics
