Compared to the conditional mean or median, conditional quantiles provide a more comprehensive picture of a variable in various scenarios. A semi-parametric quantile estimation method for a double threshold auto-regression with exogenous regressors and heteroskedasticity is considered, allowing...

We derive Bayesian confidence intervals for the probability of default (PD), asset correlation (Rho), and serial dependence (Theta) for low default portfolios (LDPs). The goal is to reduce the probability of underestimating credit risk in LDPs. We adopt a generalized method of moments with...
