In addition, our model implies that credit spreads are negatively related to the level of interest rates. Finally, our model has many implications for hedging the interest rate and default risk of corporate debt.
The empirical results suggest that the implications of this valuation model are consistent with the properties of credit spreads implicit in Moody's corporate bond yield averages. In particular, credit spreads are negatively related to the level of interest rates. Furthermore, differences in credit spreads across industries and sectors appear to be related to difference in correlations between equity returns and changes in the interest rate.
We also find that changes in interest rates account for more of the variation in credit spreads for investment-grade bonds than changes in the value of the assets of the firm. The results provide strong evidence that both default risk and
interest rate risk are necessary components for a valuation model for corporate debt.
Finally, we observe that while traditional approaches to modelling risky debt provide important conceptual insights, they have not provided practical tools for valuing realistic types of corporate securities. The primary advantage
of this model is that it is easily applied to all types of corporate debt securities and, therefore, can be used to provide specific pricing and hedging results rather than just general implications. In particular, the model provides
a simple theoretical benchmark against which the observed properties of risky corporate debt prices can be compared. Future research should focus on testing whether this two-factor model is able to explain the actual level of
corporate bond yields using detailed cross-sectional and time-series data for individual bonds and firms.
