Open Live Script

Create a defprobcurve object using defprobcurve and then use hazardrates to calculate the hazard rates. 

Settle = datetime(2017,9,20);
DefProbTimes = [calmonths(6) calyears([1 2 3 4 5 7 10 20 30])];
DefaultProbabilities = [0.005 0.007 0.01 0.015 0.026 0.04 0.077 0.093 0.15 0.20]';
ProbDates = Settle + DefProbTimes;

DefaultProbCurve = defprobcurve(Settle,ProbDates,DefaultProbabilities,'Basis',5)
DefaultProbCurve = 
  defprobcurve with properties:

                  Settle: 20-Sep-2017
                   Basis: 5
                   Dates: [10x1 datetime]
    DefaultProbabilities: [10x1 double]


hazardrates(DefaultProbCurve)
ans = 10×1
