The 40% recovery rate isn't written down on the swaps actual terms?

Edit: I asked ChatGPT. "The recovery rate of a credit default swap (CDS) is typically specified in the contract and agreed upon by the parties involved. The recovery rate is the percentage of the notional value of the underlying debt that the protection buyer would receive in the event of a credit event, such as a default, of the reference entity.

To find the recovery rate of a specific CDS contract, you can refer to the contract documentation, which should include details on the recovery rate. This information may also be available from the CDS provider or through financial data providers such as Bloomberg, Reuters, or other financial news sources.

It's worth noting that the recovery rate can vary depending on the specific CDS contract, the reference entity, and the prevailing market conditions. Therefore, it's important to confirm the recovery rate specified in the contract and to keep track of any changes in the market or credit conditions that could affect the recovery rate."
