It is well-known that interest rates are extremely persistent, yet they are best modeled and understood as stationary processes. These properties are contradictory in the workhorse Gaussian affine term structure model in which the persistent data often result in unit roots that imply...

We analyze optimal monetary policy and its implications for asset prices, when aggregate demand has inertia and responds to asset prices with a lag. If there is a negative output gap, the central bank optimally overshoots aggregate asset prices (asset prices are initially pushed above their...

We build a model for bond yields based on a small-scale representation of an economy with secular declines in inflation, the real rate and output growth. Long-run restrictions identify nominal shocks that influence long-run inflation but do not influence the long-run real rate or output growth....

In this paper we formulate the Risk Management Control problem in the interest rate area as a constrained stochastic … portfolio optimization problem. The utility that we use can be any continuous function and based on the viscosity theory, the … for a specific interest rate portfolio. The recent financial crisis showed that risk management of derivatives portfolios …

This paper proposes an integrated pricing framework for convertible bonds, which comprises firm value evolving as an exponential jump diffusion, correlated stochastic interest rates movements and an efficient numerical pricing scheme. By construction, the proposed stochastic model fits in the...

This article attempts to identify the best model of the short term interest rates that can predict its stochastic process over time.We studied eight different models of interest rates in the short term. The choice of these models was the aim of analyzing the relevance of certain specifications...
