Abstract
⺠We study the relationship between sovereign default risk and macroeconomic volatility. ⺠We use a quantitative model with endogenous default risk. ⺠We find a non-monotonic relationship between default risk and volatility. ⺠This result reflects as a trade-off between prudence and the insurance value of default. ⺠We show that this feature also holds in the data.
