Abstract
The credit derivatives market is growing rapidly in size as well as importance. Credit default swaps, the building blocks in the market, have several advantages over corporate bonds and asset swaps—not least of which is the ability to disaggregate the interest rate component from the credit component. The predominant strategies that hedge funds and other managers use to optimize credit portfolios are basis trades, curve trades, index trades, options trades, capital structure trades, and correlation trades.
