报告摘要:
We propose a new measure of the implied volatility of Credit Default Swap
(CDS): CIV.Specifically, we employ the unite recovery claim to bridge CDS
and deep out-of-the-money put options of the same company, and back out CIV
via the binomial tree. Our CIV measure strongly co-moves with the Option Implied Volatility (OIV), with a correlation coefficient
of 0.8.Based on the standardized difference between CIV and OIV, we construct CDS and option trading strategies. Without taking transaction costs into account,
the long-short CDS trading strategy achieves an annualized return of 58.29% and
a Sharpe ratio of 2.97, which can hardly be explained by non-parametric skewness and volatility risk.
