This isn’t my thing … though it should have been given my clear public statements on Greece’s inevitable failure.

Nonetheless, I get questions on it from time to time and I see posts on our HUBS, so I took a quick look at a few places and found Wikipedia has a nice summary.  I stress summary because CDS is a big boys game and 99% of you will need a full-service broker to advise you and help execute.  Personally, I think you can find an ETF for just about anything today and they represent an easier route relative to CDS.
