 FRB: Supervisory Letter SR 96-17 (GEN) on supervisory guidance for credit derivatives -- August 12, 1996
Credit derivatives are off-balance sheet arrangements that allow one party (the "beneficiary") to transfer the credit risk of a "reference asset," which it often actually owns, to another party (the "guarantor").
For example, a credit derivative used to offset the credit exposure of a loan to a corporate customer may use a publicly-traded corporate bond of the customer as the reference asset, whose credit quality serves as a proxy for the on-balance sheet loan.
A banking organization that uses a credit derivative, which is based on a reference asset that differs from the protected underlying asset, must document the credit derivative being used to offset credit risk and must link it directly to the asset or assets whose credit risk the transaction is designed to offset.

 CREDIT DERIVATIVES AND RISK MANAGEMENT
A credit default swap typically pays off at the occurrence of a "credit event" that amounts to a default, so would not be suitable for trading exposure to a non-performing loan portfolio — which is already in default.
Most of the credit derivatives literature is from the point of view of the investor, but what’s important to the investor is important to the issuer, because it affects the price that the investor will pay for the issuer’s securities.
That puzzles you, since you associate (a) a rise in the share price with an increase in the credit quality, (b) an increase in the credit quality with a decline in the credit spread, and (c) a decline in the credit spread with a decline in the quoted cost of a default swap.
