Abstract We study the local risk-minimization approach for defaultable markets in a general setting where the Brownian motion and the default time may influence each other.
We find the F\"ollmer-Schweizer decomposition in this general setting, when a recovery payment is due either at time of default or at time of maturity.
We compute it explicitly in two particular cases, when default time depends on the risky asset's behaviour and when only a dependence of discounted asset price on default time is occurring.
