Risk of Default

Sellers of contracts on CIT demanded 16 percent upfront and 5 percent a year to protect the New York-based company's bonds from default for five years, according to Phoenix. That means it costs $1.6 million initially and $500,000 a year to protect $10 million in CIT bonds. The cost is up from $740,000 a year yesterday. Upfront payments are demanded when investors see a heightened risk of imminent default.
