Abstract and Program

The lectures present the basic framework of Credit Risk.

In the first part, we present various models for the case of a single default, in particular the structural approach, the intensity based model, the density model and the general case. We explain the links between these approaches and show how to compute prices of defaultable claims. We use integration with respect to a single jump process and recall how to use this simple tool.

The second part is devoted to the multidefault case. We recall some basic facts on marked point processes and make use of this methodology. We then present copula and dynamic copulae
