Abstract

We highlight important and specific characteristics of default risk and methodological implications. In a simulation contrasting independent, Gaussian and Clayton copulas, we also show that joint default probabilities might be a hidden source of risk in conventional portfolio models of default.

Keywords: default risk, credit risk, copula, dependency, portfolio analysis, risk management
