Description: The recent financial crisis has highlighted the need for better valuation models and risk management procedures better understanding of structured products and has called into question the actions of many financial institutions. It has become commonplace to blame the inadequacy of credit risk models claiming that the crisis was due to sophisticated and obscure products being traded but practitioners have for a long time been aware of the dangers and limitations of credit models. It would seem that a lack of understanding of these models is the root cause of their failures but until now little analysis had been published on the subject and when published it had gained very limited attention. Credit Models and the Crisis is a succinct but technical analysis of the key aspects of the credit derivatives modeling problems tracing the development (and flaws) of new quantitative methods for credit derivatives and CD Os up to and through the credit crisis. Responding to the immediate need for clarity in the market and academic research environments this book follows the development of credit derivatives and CD Os at a technical level analyzing the impact strengths and weaknesses of methods ranging from the introduction of the Gaussian Copula model and the related implied correlations to the introduction of arbitrage - free dynamic loss models capable of calibrating all the tranches for all the maturities at the same time. It also illustrates the implied copula a method that can consistently account for CD Os with different attachment and detachment points but not for different maturities and explains why the Gaussian Copula model is still used in its base correlation formulation. The book reports both alarming pre - crisis research and market examples as well as commentary through history using data up to the end of 2009, making it an important addition to modern derivatives literature. With banks and regulators struggling to fully analyze at a technical level many of the flaws in modern financial models it will be indispensable for quantitative practitioners and academics who want to develop stable and functional models in the future.
