Refinement on Poisson approximation of CDOs
Nat Yonghinta, Kritsana Neammaneea,b,*
ABSTRACT: A collateralized debt obligation (CDO) is a type of structured asset-backed securities. It is one of the
causes of the financial crisis in 2007-2008. Jiao and Karoui [Finance Stoch 13 (2009):151-180] and Neammanee
and Yonghint [Bull Malays Math Sci Soc 43 (2020):1135-1152] approximated the mean of CDO tranche loss by using
Poisson distribution. In this paper, we improve their results by adding a correction term and show that the order of
our bounds is better than those previous results. Our main tools are Stein-Chen's method and the technique from
Neammanee and Thongtha [Stoch Model Appl 9 (2006):13-23].
