问题如下:
White, a manufacture company, borrowed USD 500 million from Ace Bank. To hedge its debt exposure to White, Ace Bank enters into a credit default swap transaction with City Bank, where City Bank would fully compensate Ace Bank if White defaults. If the defaults of Ace Bank, City Bank, and White are independent and assume their default probabilities are 0.5%, 0.6%, and 4.0%, respectively. What is the probability that Ace Bank will suffer a credit loss in its exposure to White?
选项:
A.4.0%
B.0.6%
C.0.02%
D.0.024%
解释:
D is correct.
考点:CDS
解析:
当 White 违约且 City Bank 也违约的时候, Ace Bank 要遭受 credit loss.
0.6% * 4.0% = 0.024%
为什么不是4%?
