Resumen:
In this paper we describe a two factor model for a defaultable discount bond, assuming a mean reverting log-normal dynamics with bounded volatility for the instantaneous short rate spread. Under some simplifying assumptions we obtain an explicit solution for zero recovery in terms of the confluent hypergeometric functions.
