Abstract

We calibrated the three-state version of the model to the history of iTraxx tranches and showed that the fitting ability of the model is much better than that of a corresponding one-factor LHC NIG model. We also introduced liquidity premiums into the Crash-NIG copula model and demonstrated that the actual credit crisis is substantially driven by liquidity effects.
