This thesis describes a new approach for the valuation of credit derivatives. The interest rate and the default intensity are modelled by a CIR++ model (possibly extended by exponential jumps). The analytical price of CDS options (Brigo and Alfonsi (2005)) is used for calibration. Based thereon an analytical price for contingent credit lines is derived as the sum over single period options. A motivating statistical analysis of historical time series by an EM algorithm indicates that the distribution of default intensity depends on the regime. This results in a RS CIR++ model in which the CIR parameters can be different in each regime. Tree models are used for numerical valuation. Two different models, the model of Brigo and Mercurio (2006...
