Summary of Recent High-Yield Bond
Activity & Outlook
•
Continued Low Default Rates and Bankruptcies (Chapter 11 Filings) and High Recovery Rates
Since 2010
- Outlook is for Default Rates in the U.S. H.Y. Market to Remain Below Average, but for European
Default Rates to Increase
- Decreasing Chapter 11 Filings and Time to Emergences since 2009
- Current Levels of Filings about Equal to Historic Median
•
Record New Issuance of H.Y. Bonds in the U.S. and Europe Since 2010
- Outlook is for Record or Near-Record Continued New Issuance as Interest Rates Remain at
Near Record Low Levels
- Increase in High-Yield New Issues at CCC Level Implying Higher Risk of Future Defaults
- Asian High-Yield Bond Market Size about 1/3 of Europe and Less than 1/10 of U.S. (but
Growing)
•
Credit Quality of U.S. H.Y. and I.G. Market Now No Better than, and Probably Worse than, Prior
to the Financial Crisis (2007)
- Z-Score Model Results
- Liquidity/Debt Comparisons
•
Moderate Risk-Adjusted Returns for High-Yield and Distressed Debt Markets, Despite Elevated
Price Levels
- Outlook is for Mid-High Single-Digit Returns in 2014
•
Quality Junk Strategy
- Buy Quality Junk and Sell Junk Quality
•
A Novel Approach To Assessing Sovereign Debt Default Risk
- Bottom-Up Approach for Private Firms and Banks in Europe and Asia

Marginal and Cumulative
Mortality Rate Equation
Total value of defaulting debt in year (t)
MMR(t) =
total value of the population at the start of the year (t)
MMR = Marginal Mortality Rate
One can measure the cumulative mortality rate (CMR) over a
specific time period (1,2,…, T years) by subtracting the product of
the surviving populations of each of the previous years from one
(1.0), that is,
CMR(t) = 1 -  SR(t) ,
t=1
here
CMR (t) = Cumulative Mortality Rate in (t),
SR (t) = Survival Rate in (t) , 1 - MMR (t)
