Bullet points include: Moody’s-KMV assume firms default when asset value falls below weighted sum of long- and short-term debt. But implementing full Monte Carlo analysis with this assumption seems to generate poor results. So adopt this assumption in volatility estimation but then rescale distance from initial kt to trigger before performing Monte Carlo. Rescaling uses non-linear transformation, based on historical default data
