Shape of the Yield Curve Under CIR Single Factor Model: A Note
نویسنده
چکیده
This note derives the shapes of the yield curve as a function of the current spot rate under Cox, Ingersoll, and Ross (CIR) (1985b) single factor model. Corresponding results reported in CIR are shown to be incorrect.

Yield Curve Shapes and the Asymptotic Short Rate Distribution in Affine One-factor Models
We consider a model for interest rates, where the short rate is given by a time-homogenous, one-dimensional affine process in the sense of Duffie, Filipović, and Schachermayer. We show that in such a model yield curves can only be normal, inverse or humped (i.e. endowed with a single local maximum). Each case can be characterized by simple conditions on the present short rate rt. We give condit...
متن کاملYield Curve Fitting with Term Structure Models: Empirical Evidence from the Euro Market
We study the fitting of the euro yield curve with the Longstaff and Schwartz (1992) (LS) two-factor general equilibrium model and the Schaefer and Schwartz (1984) (SS) two-factor arbitrage model of the term structure of interest rates. The Cox, Ingersoll, and Ross (1985b) (CIR) one-factor model is also studied as a reference. LS use the short-term interest rate and the volatility of the short-t...
متن کاملThe Relationship between Geomorphic Characteristics and Watershed Sediment Yield: A Case of Selected Subwatersheds of Khorasan Razavi
Extended abstract 1- Introduction Soil erosion by water is a dominant geomorphic process which threatens food security in most parts of the world .The geomorphic characteristics of a watershed play an important role in watershed hydrology, soil erosion processes and sediment yield. Geomorphic characteristics can be an indicator of soil erosion and sedimentation of a watershed. Geomorphic char...
متن کاملA Numerical Analysis for the Effect of Slip Velocity and Stenosis Shape on Non-Newtonian Flow of Blood (TECHNICAL NOTE)
The aim of this paper is to study the effect of slip velocity and shape of stenosis on non-Newtonian flow of blood through a stenosed arterial segment. Blood is modeled as Bingham-Plastic fluid in a uniform circular tube with a radially non-symmetric stenosis. The problem is investigated by a joint effort of analytical and numerical techniques. The influence of stenosis shape parameter, slip ve...
