In this paper, we present an integrated framework for the measurement and management of market and credit risk in fixed income portfolios. The framework based on the Mark-to-Future approach promoted by Algorithmics is used to analyze the contribution of market and credit risk to portfolio risk...

The objective of this paper is to model and estimate simultaneously the joint dynamics of default-free and defaultable bond term structures. Defaultable bond prices are modeled in an intensity based framework along the lines of Duffie and Singleton (1999) with state variables following an affine...

In this paper, we solve the intertemporal investment problem of an investor holding a portfolio of default-free and defaultable bonds. Default-risk is modeled in an intensity based framework with state variables following an affine diffusion. The structure of the optimal portfolio over time is...
