Regime Switches in Swedish Interest Rates
This paper examines the forecasting properties of endogenous regime switching models for Swedish interest rate volatility. To obtain a valid statistic for determining the exact number of states, a Monte Carlo procedure is employed. The results point out the ability of regime switching models to account for even very large degrees of leptokurtosis. I evaluate the prognoses with the Diebold-Maria...
متن کاملRegime-switching Risk in the Term Structure of Interest Rates
This paper incorporates the systematic risk of regime shifts into a general equilibrium model of the term structure of interest rates. The regime-switching risk introduces a new source of time-variation in bond term premiums. A closedform solution for the term structure of interest rates is obtained for an affine-type model under log-linear approximation. The model is estimated by Efficient Met...
متن کاملRegime Switching Interest Rates and Fluctuations in Emerging Markets∗
Many emerging economies have experienced current account reversals followed by large declines in economic activity. These sudden stops are reflected in their real interest rates, which alternate between tranquil times, when the level is relatively low and stable, and crises, during which interest rates are higher and more volatile. We embed an estimated regime switching process of interest rate...
متن کاملTerm Structure of Interest Rates with Regime Shifts
We develop a term structure model where the underlying short term interest rate and the market price of risk are modeled as square-root processes which are subject to discrete regime shifts. Our model captures the idea that the aggregate economy is subject to risks from discrete and persistent changes in the business cycle. We provide a solution for the nominal default-free yield curve in this ...
متن کاملOptimal Monetary Policy Regime Switches∗
Given structural shifts in the economy, optimal simple monetary policy rules may respond with switches in their policy parameters. When the growth rate, inter-temporal preferences, or volatilities switch, the monetary authority chooses regime-dependent policy parameters to maximize welfare. These optimized policy parameters may differ across regimes and from the optimal choice of parameters for...
