Structural Models of Default
Merton (1974) and Black and Scholes (1973)
Equity holders have a valuable put option when they
borrow money form bondholders.
Equity holders may exercise the option when the firm’s
assets below the PV of the loan obligations
If the value of implicit put option is high, the corporate
borrowers will walk away from their debt obligations by
putting the firm’s assets to the lenders
Value of risky debt
Corporate debt investors are essentially short a put
option
When value of the firm is low---the equity holders can
put the firm to bond investors and walk away form
their contractual debt obligations
Value of risky debt= Value of risk-free debt – value of
put; or
Value of put = Value of risk-free debt – Value of risky
debt
The Spread
The spread:
The value of the put option on the assets of borrower
with a strike price equal to the promised value of debt
obligations.
the spread should increase with volatility; leverage;
and increasing in time to maturity
Option pricing model- Valuing debt
Managers have the option to walk away from the debt
holders, due to the limited liability of the owners
If we have the value of conservation requirement as of:
V=S+D
Where V is total value of the firm
S is the value of equity, and
D is the market value of debt
•Bondholders have the right to take over the firm when the
value of the firm at maturity date T is less than or equal to F
(Face amount/Strike price)
•The compensation to be received by creditors upon
reaching the lower reorganization boundary is specified-----
the bondholders will receive VT(spot price of underlying
asset) at date T once they take over.

Probability of Default (PD) and Loss Given
Default (LGD)
If μ is the expected return on asset, the real life
probability of default ( ) can be written as:
Market Price
Market price reflects credit risk
Increasing credit risk ----- lowering prices
Credit risk ----- affect recovery rate on loan or bond
obligations
Investors are interesting in determining the probability
of default (leading to credit event) and potential
recovery rates in the event of default
Both of the probability of default and recovery rate
determine the value of a credit-risky security
Implementing Structural Models: The KMV
Approach
Credit risk assessment process
Determine the value of assets (V) and their
volatility
Calculate the distance to default (DD)
Determination of Expected Default Frequency
Value of Equity
Value of the equity represents by the stock
price and driven by the following factors:
Value of the firm’s assets (V)
The volatility of the assets (σ)
The leverage ratio (L)
The coupon on long term debt (c) and
The risk-free rate (r)
Distance to Default (DD)
DD is the difference between the value of the firm and the
par value of debt (a unit of standard deviation of the firm’s
value
KMV sets the default point as somewhere between short
term debt (STD) and the total debt as the total of the short
term debt and half the value of the long term debt
The default point (DPT):

Valuation (1976)
100 −1 = 13.8462
87.83784
The yield at the down node:
100 −1 = 11.7949%
89.44954
Yield of a risky bond can be expressed in terms of
default intensity λ , recovery rate R, and risk-free rate
r:
