Brief Literature review I. CDS and Bond spreads: two measures of the same risk
Although CDS and bond spreads are two measures of the same credit risk, in practice, there are various factors that cause the two to be different such as "cheapest-to-deliver" option in the CDS, the relative liquidity in the CDS and/or bond market, the global market liquidity, bond short-sale restrictions, etc. (Wit (2006), Zhu (2006))
CDS and bond spreads reflect roughly the same risk, the risk of default of the reference entity. They move in tandem in the long -run; a long bond + short risk-free bond+CDS=0 (Ammer and Cai (2007).
DYNAMIC RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN CDS AND BOND SPREADS:
-Long-run equilibrium between CDS and Bond spreads; Blanco et al. (2005), Zhu (2006), Chan-Lau and Kim (2004) show that the theoretical parity relationship between the two credit spreads holds as a long-run equilibrium condition.
-CDS market is the main forum for credit risk price discovery (Blanco et al. (2005), Zhu (2006)) or results are mixed ( Chan-Lau and Kim (2004), In et al. (2006) )

Brief Literature review IIDeterminants of bond spreads and CDS:-Global market and country specific determinants of bond spreads (Hartelius et al. (2008), Ebner (2009), Culha et al.(2006), Baek et al.(2005) or of bond market distress( Walti(2009))
-Ratings (as measure of a country's creditworthiness) in relation with CDS and bond spreads (Sy (2002), Hull et al. (2004), Cantor et al.(1996) Gaillard (2009) )
-The high correlation of Sovereign Credit risk and CDS relation to US stock and HY bond markets, global risk premia, international liquidity and trading (Longstaff et al.(2007), Ozatay et al.(2009), Cifarelli et al. (2006))
-Common factor, capturing global financial conditions and also associated effects on the world economy, can account up to 80% of the increase of EM spreads during the turmoil (Ciarlone et al.(2008))- Sovereign emerging Bond spreads in conjunction with an IMF supported program (Eichengeen (2006), Walti(2009))
A single-name credit default swap (CDS) is a bilateral, off-balance sheet agreement between two counterparties in which one party, the protection seller or writer, offers the other party, the buyer, protection or insurance against credit risk on a specific amount of face value of bonds (the notional amount) against a credit event by a third party (reference entity), for a specified period of time, in return for premium payments. In fewer words, a credit default swap (CDS) is an agreement between two parties to exchange the credit risk of a reference entity. (Duffie (1999))
CDS contracts caracteristics and evolution ( Meng et al. (2007), Mengle (2007)) and recovery rates (Singh et al.(2009))

Evolution of JPM EMBIG Global Index
Evolution of spreads of Emerging Sovereign bond spreads was affected in a high measure by the financial turmoil; financial markets events such as funds and banks that went bankrupt impacted heavily risk-aversion that reached record-highs in Autumn 2008. Lack of trust between financial institutions led to low desire to lend between the financial institutions and to businesses. Therefore, to revive the trust and lending, CBs lowered interest rates and adopted quantitative easing and started buying long term bonds from the market.

Evolution of 5Y CDS spreads for selected countries in Latin America and Europe. (Jan 06-Apr 09):
We notice Ukraine and Venezuela have much higher CDS than the other countries, as they are more likely to default
We notice the high degree of co-movements between the countries' 5Y CDS spreads and the sharp increase after Lehman default in Sep 08

2 year correlations between Sovereign CDS: High correlation between CDS
There are high correlations between Sovereign CDS spreads. I consider that co-movements are in line with global factors evolutions (such as risk aversion, global economic growth, global liquidity availability…)
The correlations are significant at 1%, with smaller degree between AUSTRIA and RUSSIA/UKRAINE/ARGENTINA

1. Long-term relationship between CDS and Bond spreads. Cointegration
Relation between the CDS spread and bond spread for Romania
-there is a strong similarity in the pricing of risk between the two markets in times of normal market conditions
-CDS tend to react ( price in the news) first in times of increased risk aversion and reduced optimism
-in times of turmoil, each market's liquidity and imperfections combined with product/market characteristics and high risk aversion made the gap widen…still we can see an adjusting of the spreads to long term equilibrium as the crisis eased

A VECM approach to price discovery As the CDS and Bond spreads are cointegrated, a solution to study the price discovery process is by an error correction model. The focus is put on the adjustment coefficients λ1 and λ2. Optimal number of lags is chosen based on SIC and AIC.
The estimated adjustment coefficients λ1 and λ2 measure the degree to which prices in a particular market adjust to correct pricing discrepancies from their long term trend. For example, if λ2 is significantly positive, it implies that the cash market adjusts to remove pricing errors, meaning that, the derivatives market moves ahead of the cash market in reflecting changes in credit conditions. Alternatively, if λ1 is significantly negative, it implies that the CDS market moves after the cash market. If both coefficients are significant, the relative magnitude of the two coefficients reveals which of the two markets leads in terms of price discovery.
Hasbrouck’s model of “information shares” assumes that price volatility reflects new information, and so the market that contributes most to the variance of the innovations is presumed to also contribute most to price discovery. Gonzalo and Granger’s model attributes superior price discovery to the market that adjusts least to price movements in the other market.
The contributions of market 1 (the CDS market) to price discovery are defined by the following expressions:
,Pcds - CDS PRICE
,Pcs - Bond spread

Co-movements, common volatility trends and spillover effects in the Emerging Countries Sovereign CDS
In this part of the paper we test for the existence of co-movements and for the existing of spillover in the CDS spreads of Emerging Sovereigns.
The countries included in this study (8) are: Romania, Hungary, Poland, Croatia, Russia, Ukraine, Venezuela and Mexico. The data used is daily and ranges from October 2004 to end of March 2009.
The model used is a Component – GARCH model that decomposes variance in a permanent component and in a transitory component. We focus on the permanent component of variance of the daily CDS returns of the above countries.
The assumptions that I have made is that there is a strong connection between daily CDS returns and daily returns in VDAX – implied volatility of DAX. Also, a term that to show there is asymmetry in the way CDS react to good and bad news.

Principal components analysis for the permanent components of variance (full data set) for Romania, Poland and Hungary shows that first component accounts for a high 82%, showing high similarities in the movements of CDS spreads.
The result is in line with expectations as often the CEE countries are viewed as an homogenous group.

Spillover between PCV
In order to test for spillover effects towards and from a country (Romania) we re-estimate the CGARCH model using in the equation for the permanent component of variance for a country the lagged estimated permanent components for each of the other countries

Granger Causality tests for each pair of countries' permanent components of variance (PCV) show a large number of significant causalities in PCV
*, **, *** shows significance at 10%, 5% and 1% confidence level
•We see that Croatia, a relative smaller country, has less power to influence the variance of other countries, but is influenced by the PCVs of all other countries at 1% significance level. •Mexico, a known country in the market of sovereign debt Granger causes all other PCV but is Granger caused at 1% by the larger countries in this study. •The results show that there is causality from all countries to Romania and from Romania to all countries except towards Venezuela and to Poland.

LIBOR-OIS spread - a very good relation with the financial turmoil
LOIS, the "spread" between LIBOR rates and OIS rates is an important measure of trust in the money markets, considered by many, including former US Federal Reserve chairman Alan Greenspan, to be a strong indicator for the relative stress in the money markets. A higher spread is typically interpreted as indication of a decreased willingness to lend by major banks, while a lower spread indicates higher liquidity in the market. As such, the spread can be viewed as indication of banks' perception of the creditworthiness of other financial institutions and the general availability of funds for lending purposes.

Few cross-market correlations for Romania CDS
We notice high correlation between Romania 5Y CDS, VDAX volatility index and iTraxx Europe Crossover index
Evolution of the Romania 5Y CDS is similar to the implied volatility of the 1M EURRON options. This is as a result of the fact that global market conditions, especially risk aversion, affected all Emerging markets not only debt market.
Correlations between markets provide tradable (speculation, hedging) oportunities
28
There is a dynamic relationship between CDS and Bond spreads. Price discovery occurs in CDS market
There are co-movements and spillover effects in Emerging Sovereign CDS market
There are important similarities between CEE Emerging Sovereigns CDS spreads
Global market factors such as risk aversion, liquidity availability, creditworthiness, economic sentiment outlook, economic growth impact CDS and Bond spreads movements
