Recovery amount
When a bond or other financial derivative defaults, the recovery amount is the amount that the underlying company can afford to pay. This is based on the cash originally designated for the coupon or maturity payment (if they defaulted simply because they did not have enough cash), or by selling off assets, or other methods.
