Book Nonlinear Short Term Interest Rate Dynamics

Download or read book Nonlinear Short Term Interest Rate Dynamics written by Catherine Kyrtsou and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent empirical researches have examined the relationship between US short-term interest rates using linear as well nonlinear econometric tools. The main objective of this paper is to employ a new dynamic model that combines the bivariate noisy Mackey-Glass and the BEKK GARCH processes (recently proposed by Kyrtsou and Labys, 2006, 2007), in the aim to determine the importance of observed non-linear dependences in the evolution of dynamic correlations between historical data for US effective Federal fund rates and 3-month T-Bill rates.

Book Nonlinear Interest Rate Dynamics and Implications for the Term Structure

Download or read book Nonlinear Interest Rate Dynamics and Implications for the Term Structure written by Gerard A. Pfann and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper explores nonlinear dynamics for the time series of the short term interest rate in the United States. The proposed model is an autoregressive threshold model augmented by conditional heteroskedasticity. The performance of the model is evaluated by considering its implications for the term structure of interest rates. The nonlinear dynamics imply a form of nonlinearity in the levels relation between the long and the short rate. Empirical results indicate that the implied nonlinearity is present in the data.

Book A Comprehensive Analysis of the Short Term Interest Rate Dynamics

Download or read book A Comprehensive Analysis of the Short Term Interest Rate Dynamics written by Turan G. Bali and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 33 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper provides a comprehensive analysis of the short-term interest-rate dynamics based on three different data sets and two flexible parametric specifications. The significance of nonlinearity in the short-rate drift declines with increasing maturity for the interest-rate series used in the study. Using a flexible diffusion specification and incorporating GARCH volatility and non-normal innovation reduce the need for a nonlinear drift specification. Finally, the nonlinear drift specification performs better than the linear drift specification only when the short-term interest-rate levels reach historical highs.

Book Fiscal Policy  Public Debt and the Term Structure of Interest Rates

Download or read book Fiscal Policy Public Debt and the Term Structure of Interest Rates written by Roland Demmel and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The introduction of the thesis consists of four parts: first, we motivate our chosen macroeconomic setting by looking at some real world phenomena. For a better understanding of these phenomena, we argue that the mutual dynamic interactions between flScal policy and financial markets need to be closely examined in a macroeconomic framework. Second, we review different strands of the economic literature in order to show that most of the literature has so far exclusively concentrated either on fmancial market dynamics or on flScal policy issues. We conclude that a more integrated model setting is called for in order to explain the dynamic interactions observed in reality. Third, we discuss at length the economic assumptions underlying our model. This avoids multiple repetition later on. Finally, we outline the structure of the thesis and the objectives we pursue in the different chapters. 1. 1 Motivation Fiscal policy and financial market reactions are increasingly receiving world wide attention. The most recent examples are the Maastricht criteria about flScal control, the South-East Asia financial crisis and the resulting IMF policy stance, the high level of public debt in developed and developing countries and the effect on interest rates and economic growth. In contrast to the still underdeveloped theoretical literature on these dynamic links, finding empirical evidence that supports the existence of these links is not a very hard task.

Book Nonlinear Dynamics in Economics  Finance and the Social Sciences

Download or read book Nonlinear Dynamics in Economics Finance and the Social Sciences written by Gian Italo Bischi and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-12-15 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last two decades there has been a great deal of research into nonlinear dynamic models in economics, finance and the social sciences. This book contains twenty papers that range over very recent applications in these areas. Topics covered include structural change and economic growth, disequilibrium dynamics and economic policy as well as models with boundedly rational agents. The book illustrates some of the most recent research tools in this area and will be of interest to economists working in economic dynamics and to mathematicians interested in seeing ideas from nonlinear dynamics and complexity theory applied to the economic sciences.

Book Threshold Dynmamics of Short Term Interest Rates

Download or read book Threshold Dynmamics of Short Term Interest Rates written by Theofanis Archontakis and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper studies a nonlinear one-factor term structure model in discrete time. The single factor is the short-term interest rate, which is modeled as a self-exciting threshold autoregressive (SETAR) process. Our specification allows for shifts in the intercept and the variance. The process is stationary but mimics the nearly I(1) dynamics typically encountered with interest rates. In comparison with a linear model, we find empirical evidence in favor of the threshold model for Germany and the US. Based on the estimated short-rate dynamics we derive the implied arbitrage-free term structure of interest rates. Since analytical solutions are not feasible, bond prices are computed by means of Monte Carlo integration. The resulting term structure exhibits properties that are qualitatively similar to those observed in the data and which cannot be captured by the linear Gaussian one-factor model. In particular, our model captures the nonlinear relation between long rates and the short rate found in the data.

Book Financial Economics

Download or read book Financial Economics written by Antonio Mele and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2022-11-22 with total page 1147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive reference for financial economics, balancing theoretical explanations, empirical evidence, and the practical relevance of knowledge in the field. This volume offers a comprehensive, integrated treatment of financial economics, tracking the major milestones in the field and providing methodological tools. Doing so, it balances theoretical explanations, empirical evidence, and practical relevance. It illustrates nearly a century of theoretical advances with a vast array of models, showing how real phenomena (and, at times, market practice) have helped economists reformulate existing theories. Throughout, the book offers examples and solved problems that help readers understand the main lessons conveyed by the models analyzed. The book provides a unique and authoritative reference for the field of financial economics. Part I offers the foundations of the field, introducing asset evaluation, information problems in asset markets and corporate finance, and methods of statistical inference. Part II explains the main empirical facts and the challenges these pose for financial economists, which include excess price volatility, market liquidity, market dysfunctionalities, and the countercyclical behavior of market volatility. Part III covers the main instruments that protect institutions against the volatilities and uncertainties of capital markets described in part II. Doing so, it relies on models that have become the market standard, and incorporates practices that emerged from the 2007–2008 financial crisis.
