Credit migration: Generating generators
Richard J. Martin
Papers from arXiv.org
Abstract:
Markovian credit migration models are a reasonably standard tool nowadays, but there are fundamental difficulties with calibrating them. We show how these are resolved using a simplified form of matrix generator and explain why risk-neutral calibration cannot be done without volatility information. We also show how to use elementary ideas from differential geometry to make general inferences about calibration stability. This the longer version of an article published by RISK (Feb 2021).
