We propose an alternative approach to the modeling of the positive dependence between the probability of default and the loss given default in a portfolio of exposures, using a bivariate urn process. The model combines the power of Bayesian nonparametrics and statistical learning, allowing for...

We study the impact of wrong-way-risk (WWR) on credit valuation adjustment (CVA) for European and Bermudan options, based on an intensity model. WWR is modeled by a dependency between the underlying asset and the intensity of the counterparty's default. We consider three different models. We...
