As an efficient method for reducing systemic risk, contingent convertible bonds (Cocos) have received widespread attention, especially in banking. Similarly, contingent convertible catastrophe bonds (CocoCATs) are effective in the insurance system to minimize catastrophic risks. In this study,...

Within the structural approach for credit risk models we discuss the optimal exercise of the callable and convertible bonds. The Vasiĕk-model is applied to incorporate interest rate risk into the firm’s value process which follows a geometric Brownian motion. Finally, we derive pricing bounds...
