In this paper, we study the valuation of a single-name credit default swap and a $k$th-to-default basket swap under a correlated regime-switching hazard processes model. We assume that the defaults of all the names are driven by a Markov chain describing the macro-economic conditions and some shock events modelled by a multivariate regime-switching shot noise process. Based on some expressions for the joint Laplace transform of the regime-switching shot noise processes, we give explicit formulas for the spread of a CDS contract and the $k$th-to-default basket swap.

Keywords: Hazard process, Markov chain, kth-to-default basket swap, multivariate regime-switching shot noise process.
