On pricing and hedging basket credit derivatives with dependent structure

In this paper, we study the problem of hedging a basket credit derivatives, in particular, we are interested in basket default swaps. For the pricing of credit derivatives, we consider a factor Copula approach. Single-name credit default swaps will be chosen as the hedging instruments. The hedging mechanism is tested using simulated data with a given measure. Numerical results reveal the efficiency of our proposed hedging method.
