Credit Default Swap Option Valuation

Authors/Creators

Description

The European credit default swap option (CDSO) valuation model is employed to price an option that grants its holder the right, but not the obligation, to enter into a Credit Default Swap (CDS) at some future point in time. The premium to be paid on this forward-start CDS is fixed in advance at some strike level. If the reference entity should default before the forward-start date, the contract is in null and no payments are made.
