We develop the mathematics of a filtration shrinkage model that has recently been considered in the credit risk modeling literature. Given a finite collection of points x1<⋯N in ℝ, the region indicator function R(x) assumes the value i if x∈(xi−1, xi]. We take $\mathbb{F}$ to be the filtration generated by (R(Xt))t≥0, where X is a diffusion with infinitesimal generator $\mathcal{A}$ . We prove a martingale representation theorem for $\mathbb{F}$ in terms of stochastic integrals with respect to N random measures whose compensators have a simple form given in terms of certain Lévy measures Fi, which are related to the differential equation $\mathcal{A}u=\lambda u$ .
