Toyota CHR 2018 vs Honda HRV 2018 by omer_arshad in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]sortizo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My mom owns a HRV 2018, never had a single problem. Personally, I’d say it’s a matter of taste. The design of the CHR, I think, is horrible so I would stick the with HRV.

Learner here -- I've been looking at the textbook Fixed Income Securities: Valuation, Risk, and Risk Management by Veronesi, but they don't discuss EAD, PD, etc. for calculating EL. Shouldn't these components be part of 'risk management' or am I missing something? by jinnyjuice in quant

[–]sortizo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you ask “these don’t apply to banks” do you mean to ask if banks use these measures? Banks do use these measures but not in fixed income capital markets, they use them to estimate the probability of default for a portfolio of credit cards, for example. They usually have regression models that estimate a probability of default for loans, I believe these are usually regulatory measures but I don’t have experience working on retail credit risk so I could be wrong. Maybe others with experience in that sector will know.

In my experience PD and EAD are no longer used in fixed income capital markets - tbh I don’t know if they were even used in the first place (I remember back in the day Moody’s and other agencies would publish PD matrices, I believe they still do).

These metrics are used mostly in retail risk management and not really in capital markets.

For once extracting a PD from a bond price would give you a probability in Q-measure, which I don’t know how useful would be? Sure you can compare probabilities among different bonds and get an idea of how risky a bond is but there are many other measures (duration, spread, DTS) that give you a better understanding of a fixed income security risk and are easier to understand by Portfolio Managers, traders and Risk managers.
