问题如下：
ABC is a French wealth management company. It invested $10 million in Corporation D’s 10-year senior unsecured bond. Being afraid that company D would default, ABC purchased a $10 million CDS on company D with a standardized coupon rate of 5%.
3 months later, company D files for bankruptcy, triggering various CDS contracts. ABC wealth company assesses the credit quality of the corporate bond they invested and the value of the CDS on the bond.
The following is the relevant information on Corporation D’s bonds currently trading in the market:
Bond 1: A 5-year senior unsecured bond trading at 40% of par.
Bond 2: A 10-year senior unsecured bond trading at 50% of par
Bond 3: A 6-year subordinated unsecured bond trading at 30% of par.
According to the information above, whether ABC would prefer to cash settle or physically settle or indifferent
选项：
A. prefer a cash settlement
B. prefer a physical settlement
C. be indifferent
解释：
A is correct.
考点：CDS的Settlement
解析：
应该选择Cash settlement；ABC公司当前持有的是10-year senior unsecured bond，即Bond 2，目前的价值为50% of par。如果选择Cash settlement，收到6million，10million（1-40%）=6million；同时卖出Bond 2收到5million；则一共有11million；
如果公司选择Physical settlement, 公司只能收到10million，即CDS contract的notional principal.
有没有可能买的CDS是cover both senior and subordinate呢？题目并没有说清楚，如果都cover的话是不是CDS赔付70%
