The pricing of Synthetic CDO based on the Hybrid model
ABSTRACT:As an important derivative instrument, CDO is playing a crucial role in the financial crisis. With complicated structure, we have developed many pricing models, which all relay on complicated mathematical model. The paper, firstly, introduces the mainstream pricing model----structural model and reduced form model. Then we introduced the Hybrid Models based on two formal models, by discussing the parameter of pricing i.e. default probability, default free risk and default correlation. In this paper, we give the hybrid model by Monte Carlo simulation based on copula function. Finally, we consider the pricing sensitivity on various parameters. According to the result of simulation, the relationship between the tranches price and pricing parameters is various. For the equity tranche and mezzanine tranche, the price and recovery rate have a positive correlation, while the case is inverse for the senior tranche. We also can conclude that, higher default correlation can lower the price of equity tranche, and have an opposite effect on the senior tranche. The influence on the mezzanine tranche isn’t certain. Furthermore, by comparing two different copula function model, we can get that marginal distribution has different effect on the tranches price.
