Exact Pricing Asymptotics for Investment-Grade Tranches of Synthetic CDO's. Part II: A Large Heterogeneous Pool
Abstract
We use the theory of large deviations to study the pricing of investment-grade tranches of synthetic CDO's. In this paper, we consider a heterogeneous pool of names. Our main tool is a large-deviations analysis which allows us to precisely study the behavior of a large amount of idiosyncratic randomness. Our calculations allow a fairly general treatment of correlation.
