A Comparative Analysis of Hyperbolic Copulas Induced by a One Factor Lévy Model
In the credit derivatives market, the observed default correlation smile, implied by the Gaussian copula, constitutes a major problem when we want to price bespoke CDO tranches. The industry standard approach for countering this dilemma is to use the concept of base correlation to try to estimate the ingoing default correlation parameters for non-standard tranche intervals. However, this approach
