Credit Default Swap, which factors affect the price?

Fransson, Johan and Westlund, Anders (2005)
Department of Business Administration
Abstract
Our thesis present a model that is trying to explain the price of credit default swaps. The model consists of five variables. By using a linear multiple regression model, we find that all of the variables are affecting the price of the swap. However, some variables are only present in a few cases. We believe that our model captures a large part of the price of the credit default swap, but that there are still other factors or variables that are affecting the price
