We examine the relationship between interest rates and inflation rates for ten countries during the period 1974- 1995. We find evidence of a unique cointegrating relationship between nominal interest rates of EMS countries, the U.S. and Canada, and the U.S., Germany, and Japan. No similar...

This paper estimate the factors underlying the volatility of the euro overnight interest rate and its transmission along the euro area money market yield curve. A new multivariate unobserved components model is proposed allowing for both long-memory and stationary cyclical dynamics. Using hourly...

In the framework of a new money market econometric model, we assess the degree of precision achieved by the European Central Bank ECB) in meeting its operational target for the short-term interest rate and the impact of the U.S. sub-prime credit crisis on the euro money market during the second...

In the paper we investigate the empirical features of euro area money market turbulence during the recent financial crisis. By means of a novel Fractionally Integrated Heteroskedastic Factor Vector Autoregressive model, we find evidence of a deterministic level factor in the EURIBOR-OIS (OIS)...

This study considers the role of the yield curve as a predictor of future interest rates, inflation rates and economic activity for New Zealand. To provide a basis for comparison, data from Australia and the US are also considered. Many studies have shown a strong empirical link between the...
