What are credit derivatives? General term used to describe various swap
and option contracts designed to transfer credit risk on loans or other assets from one party (protection buyer), to another party (protection seller).
The protection seller receives premium or interest-related payments in return for contracting to make payments to the protection buyers, which are linked to the credit standing of a reference asset.

1. Credit Default Swap
Allow one party to buy protection from another party for losses that might be incurred as a result of default by a specified reference credit (or credits).
The protection buyer pays a premium for the protection, and the protection seller agrees to make a payment to compensate the buyer for losses incurred upon the occurrence of any one of several specified credit events.

What is a credit event? Any sudden and tangible (negative) change in
a borrower's credit standing or decline in credit rating. A credit event brings into question the borrower's ability to repay its debt.
Credit events include bankruptcies or violating a bond indenture or other loan agreement.

Example…
Suppose Bank A buys a bond which issued by a Steel Company.
To hedge the default of Steel Company, it enters into a credit derivative deal with Insurance Company C.
Bank A buys a credit default swap from Insurance Company C.
Bank A pays fixed periodic payments to C, in exchange for default protection.

2. Credit Spread Option
Grants the buyer the right, but not the obligation, to purchase a bond during a specified future “exercise” period at the contemporaneous market price and to receive an amount equal to the price implied by a “strike spread” stated in the contract
CREDIT SPREAD – the difference between the yield on the borrower’s debt (loan or bond) and the yield on the referenced benchmark of the same maturity

Example…
An investor may purchase from an insurer an option to sell a bond at a particular spread above LIBOR Credit spread.
If the spread is higher on the exercise date, then the option will be exercised. Otherwise it will lapse.

3. Credit Linked Notes
Is essentially a funded credit default swap which transfers credit risk from the note issuer to the investor.
The issuer receives the issue price for each CLN from the investor and invests this in low-risk collateral.
If a credit event is declared, the issuer sells the collateral and keeps the difference between the face value and market value of the reference entity’s debt.

Example…Refer to the Steel company case again
Bank A would extend a $1 million loan to the Steel Company.
At same time Bank A issues to institutional investors an equal principal amount of a credit-linked note, whose value is tied to the value of the loan.
If a credit event occurs, Bank A’s repayment obligation on the note will decrease by just enough to offset its loss on the loan.
