This paper addresses the pricing of tranches of collater alized debt obligations. We first examine the one-factor Gaussian copula model that has become the market stan dard. Then we present a new approach to model paramet rically a dependence structure. Our approach is based on wide dependence theory. It allows creating an eventologi cal distribution that has different dependence structures using a 2-multiplicative approximation. Eventually, we use a numerical example to compare these models.
