A bond vigilante is a holder of long dated central government debt that sells - or threatens to sell - their holdings as a response to increased inflation risk or credit risk.
Risk transmission is the spread of risk from one sector to another, or within a sector.


If inflation were to be higher, then the redemption value of the long dated debt would be lower, in real (inflation adjusted) terms.


The longer dated the debt, the greater the effect on real terms values.

Risk - systemic risk.

Risk transmission is the spread of risk from one sector to another, or within a sector.


Credit risk transmission during crisis events
"... we model a high-dimensional network of European CDS [Credit Default Swap] spreads to assess the transmission of credit risk to the non-financial corporate sector.
Our findings suggest a sectoral clustering in the CDS network, where financial institutions are located in the center and non-financial as well as sovereign CDS are grouped around the financial center.
The network has a geographical component reflected in differences in the magnitude and direction of real-sector risk transmission across European countries.
While risk transmission to the non-financial sector increases during crisis events, risk transmission within the non-financial sector remains largely unchanged."
