This note presents a calibration of Barrie & Hibbert's corporate bond model for the purpose of modelling Sterling corporate bond portfolio behaviour over long-term planning horizons. The model combines a 2-factor Black-Karasinski model for risk-free interest rates with a version of the Jarrow-Lando-Turnbull credit model extended to take account of a stochastic process for credit spreads.
