Beta Regimes for the Yield Curve

We propose an affine term structure model which accommodates non-linearities in the drift and volatility function of the short-term interest rate. Such non-linearities are a consequence of discrete beta-distributed regime shifts constructed on multiple thresholds. We derive iterative closed-form formula for the whole yield curve dynamics that can be estimated using a linearized Kalman filter. F...

Consistent Yield Curve Prediction

We present an arbitrage-free, non-parametric yield curve prediction model which takes the full discretized yield curve data as input state variable. The absence of arbitrage is a particular important model feature for prediction models in case of highly correlated data as, e.g., for interest rates. Furthermore, the model structure allows to separate constructing the daily yield curve from estim...

Predicting Real Growth Using the Yield Curve

The yield curve, which plots the yield of Treasury bonds against their maturity, is one of the most closely watched financial indicators.1 Many market observers carefully track the yield curve’s shape, which is typically upward sloping and somewhat convex. At times, however, it becomes flat or slopes downward (“inverts,” in Wall Street parlance), configurations that many business economists, fi...
