Sovereign Debt Default
The Sovereign Debt Default column presents the credit default swap quotes for 5-year bonds of various countries:
Credit default swaps, also known as CDS, are financial instruments which the buyer pays premiums to the seller in exchange for compensation in case of a credit default.
