嗨,努力学习的PZer你好:
2.Defaults tend to cluster in times when the economy is in recession. In addition,
the default rate and the severity of losses in default tend to rise and fall together.
These characteristics imply big losses at the worst times, necessitating substantial compensation for this risk.
Not too surprisingly, high-yield spreads/premiums tend to rise ahead of realized default rates.
这句话原版书并没有详细解释。从前后文看,它是对前文的一个说明。
说明,人们意识到可能出现违约的话,那么就会要求一个high-yield spreads/premiums
这也符合常理,如果等到实际违约率答复上升(即打量债券发生违约),那么再要求高补意义就不大了。
因为有的债券都违约了。
