Assume that the default time 7 of a firm coincides with the first jump of a conditionally Poisson process with stochastic intensity (At)t2o. Assume also that the recovery rate R, on a defaultable zero coupon bond (with price P(t, T) and maturity T) is is predictable relative to the information generated by the state variables, i.e., Rt E Ft- for all t 0. Provide an explicit expression for the following no-arbitrage formula, by clearly explaining every step and assumption supporting your derivation: P(0,T) = E [e- where E[-] denotes expectation under the pricing measure P. freds * 1>T + rad R 10 <7 Assume that the default time 7 of a firm coincides with the first jump of a conditionally Poisson process with stochastic intensity (At)t2o.
