报告摘要：

This paper examines the comovement between CDX curve and S&P 500 index’ option volatility surface. We connect reduced-form no arbitrage model with N-S model on hazard rate implied from CDX curve. In particular, we use deterministic linear function to model volatility surface, while applying N-S model on hazard rate implied from CDX curve. Level, slope and curvature among two markets are hidden states extracted by Kalman Filter. We find changes in level, slope and curvature in CDX curve and those in volatility surface are correlated due to the bridge of S&P 500 index return. After controlling index returns, the correlations between credit factors and volatility factors mostly disappear or significantly decrease. Comovement between CDX curve and S&P 500 index’s volatility surface is enhanced after 2008 financial crisis.
