12 CDS indices
12.1 CDX and iTraxx indices ★★★★★★★★★★★★
Similar to other financial risks, the credit risk of a debt comprises the systematic risk
driven by macro factors common to many debts and specific risk driven by idiosyncratic
factors impacting only that particular debt. For internationally active banks, their debt
investments are largely diversified due to the huge number of debts issued by many
different issuers in the debt portfolio, leaving the systematic risk as the dominating
component. Since systematic risk is not observable directly, effort has been made to
discover this systematic risk. This drives the development of the CDS indices.

Table 12.1 CDX indices
A CDS index is the arithmetic average of the updated CDS spreads of a group of liquidly
traded and standardized single name CDSs (from three to 125 components) that are
originated on specific days in March and September to protect the reference debts issued
by a number of different and representative debt issuers with certain common
characteristics. After the origination, the CDS spreads of this group of single name CDSs
are calculated with respect to the revised premium, subject to the assumption that a new
zero value single name CDS is originated for the original reference debt, having the same
principal, issuer and maturity day but updated LGD, updated PD and reduced protection
period. A CDS index serves as a proxy to represent the systematic credit quality of a
particular segment in the credit market.

Table 12.2 iTraxx indices
The major CDS indices are operated and published on a daily basis by Mark-it.31
These
CDS indices come in two families:
• The CDX family covers the CDS indices for North America and emerging markets;
and
• The iTraxx family covers the CDS indices for Europe, Asia and countries.
In addition to geographical area, CDS indices are also classified by type of debt issuers,
credit quality and standard tenor.32
As such, a number of CDS indices are created to
serve the needs of a broad range of investors. The two most popular CDS indices are:
31
The CDS indices are published by Mark-it on its website with the URL
http://www.markit.com/markit.jsp?jsppage=indices.jsp
32
Standard tenors include one, three, five, seven and ten years.

After the origination, the CDS spreads of this group of single name CDSs are calculated with respect to the revised premium, subject to the assumption that a new zero value single name CDS is originated for the original reference debt, having the same principal, issuer and maturity day but updated LGD, updated PD and reduced protection period. A CDS index serves as a proxy to represent the systematic credit quality of a particular segment in the credit market.
