interJDP {AssetCorr} | R Documentation |
Joint Default Probability Matching Estimator, De Servigny and Renault (2002)
Description
The inter correlation parameter can be estimated by matching the empirical Joint Default Probability of two default time series with the theoretical one. The estimated parameter is the correlation of the systematic factors.
Usage
interJDP(d1, n1, d2, n2, rho1, rho2, B = 0, DB=c(0,0), JC = FALSE,
CI_Boot, type="bca", plot=FALSE)
Arguments
d1 |
a vector, containing the default time series of sector 1. |
n1 |
a vector, containing the number of obligors at the beginning of the period in sector 1. |
d2 |
a vector, containing the default time series of sector 2. |
n2 |
a vector, containing the number of obligors at the beginning of the period in sector 2. |
rho1 |
estimated intra correlation of sector 1. |
rho2 |
estimated intra correlation of sector 2. |
B |
an integer, indicating how many bootstrap repetitions should be used for the single bootstrap corrected estimate. |
DB |
a combined vector, indicating how many bootstrap repetitions should be used for the inner (first entry) and outer loop (second entry) to correct the bias using the double bootstrap. |
JC |
a logical variable, indicating if the jackknife corrected estimate should be calculated. |
CI_Boot |
a number, indicating the desired confidence level if the single bootstrap correction is specified. By default, the interval is calculated as the bootstrap corrected and accelerated confidence interval (Bca). |
type |
a string, indicating the desired method to calculate the confidence intervals. For more details see |
plot |
a logical variable, indicating whether a plot of the single bootstrap density should be generated. |
Details
This function estimates the inter correlation of the systematic factor. In general, the inter correlation can be estimated for the asset variables or the systematic factors. To ensure the traceability of the estimation, the intra correlation estimates will be used as plug-in estimates. Hence only one parameter (inter correlation) must be estimated. The inter correlation of the systematic factor can be transformed to the correlation of the asset variables as follows:
rho_Asset= rho_Systematic*sqrt(rho_1*rho_2)
The estimated inter correlation of the systematic factors lies between -1 and 1.
If DB
is specified, the single bootstrap corrected estimate will be calculated using the bootstrap values of the outer loop (oValues
).
