The Term Structure of Interest Rates under Regime Shifts and Jumps
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper develops a tractable dynamic term structure models under jump-diffusion and regime shifts with time varying transition probabilities. The model allows for regime-dependent jumps while both jump risk and regime-switching risk are priced. Closed form solution for the term structure is obtained for an affine-type model under loglinear approximation. JEL Classification: G12, E43, E52

Regime-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 کاملEndogenous monetary policy shifts and the term structure: Evidence from Japanese government bond yields
Koeda, Junko—Endogenous monetary policy shifts and the term structure: Evidence from Japanese government bond yields I construct a no-arbitrage term structure model with endogenous regime shifts and apply it to Japanese government bond (JGB) yields. This model subjects the short-term interest rate to monetary regime shifts, specifically a zero interest rate policy (ZIRP) and normal regimes, whi...
متن کاملAn Econometric Model of The Term Structure of Interest Rates Under Regime-Switching Risk
This paper develops and estimates a continuous-time model of the term structure of interests under regime shifts. The model uses an analytically simple representation of Markov regime shifts that elucidates the effects of regime shifts on the yield curve and gives a clear interpretation of regime-switching risk premiums. The model falls within the broad class of essentially affine models with a...
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 کامل15 Discussion
It is well known that model parameters are not invariant to shifts in policy regimes. Since Lucas' excellent paper on the subject, economists have paid lip service to the problems raised by regime shifts. Most policy analyses, however, ranging from columns in national magazines and newspapers to more formal work, continue to use models whose parameters are implicitly assumed to be immune to reg...
