We consider a diffusion model of small variable type with positive drift density varying in a nonparametric set. We investigate Gaussian and Poisson approximations to this model. In the sense of asymptotic equivalence of experiments, it is shown that observation of the diffusion process until...

Up to the 2007 crisis, research within bottom‐up CDO models mainly concentrated on the dependence between defaults. However, due to the substantial increase in the market price of systemic credit risk protection, more attention has been paid to recovery rate assumptions.In this paper, we focus...
