In this paper, we examined and compared the forecast performances of the dynamic Nelson-Siegel (DNS), dynamic Nelson-Siegel-Svensson (DNSS), and arbitrage-free Nelson-Siegel (AFNS) models after the financial crisis period. The best model for the forecast performance is the DNSS model in the...

We investigate the term structure of forward and futures prices for models where the price processes are allowed to be driven by a general marked point process as well as by a multidimensional Wiener process. Within an infinite dimensional HJM-type model for futures and forwards we study the...

For finite dimensional factor models, the paper studies general quadratic term structures. These term structures include as special cases the affine term structures and the Gaussian quadratic term structures, previously studied in the literature. We show, however, that there are other,...

We investigate the term structure for the case when interest rates are allowed to be driven by a general marked point process as well as by a Wiener process. Developing a theory which allows for measure-valued trading portfolios we study existence and uniqueness of a martingale measure, as well...
