Abstract

Evaluation of Country Risks by Means of Option Price Methods

The aim of this contribution is to preesent an option price model for the determination of spreads (interest premiums) in the case of lendings to foreign governments. The starting point is a stylized model for the tying-up of debt rescheduling packages. This model allows the determination of the market value of a country’s foreign debts by means of option price theory-methods. Conceptually, this approach is based on the question as to what amount of insurance premium a lender would be prepared to pay in order to be able to move out of any lending to a foreign government at par. Such amount of insurance premium subsequently allows the spread to be estimated for a lending transaction under which the lender does not have or does not use the possibility of moving out at par. This contribution ends on a discussion of the question as to whether and, if so, to what extent the described model is capable of furnishing results that are relevant for practical financial management purposes and useful in quantitative terms
