We propose different exactly identified specifications of affine models with observed macri factors. The models are compared estimating Brazilian domestic and sovereign yield curves. Propomos diferentes especificações exatamente identificadas de modelos afins com fatores macroeconômicos...

The evolution of the yields of different maturities is related and can be described by a reduced number of commom latent factors. Multifactor interest rate models of the finance literature, common factor models of the time series literature and others use this property. Each model has advantages...

We use macro finance models to study the interaction between macro variables and the Brazilian sovereign yield curve using daily data. We calculate the model implied default probabilities and a measure of the impact of macro shocks on the probabilities. An extension of the Dai-Singleton...

Our objective is to implement a credit risk pricing model for sovereign bonds and estimate the model for a historical series of yields of emerging markets bonds. We use a reduced model with a Vasicek 2-factor model on Brazilian sovereign data. The estimation occurs in two stages. Using Maximum...

Apresenta os modelos para a curva de referências e a curva soberana emergente. Mostra os resultados numéricos das estimações e uma série de gráficos com as curvas teóricas da estrutura a termo dos juros, dos spreads e das probabilidades de default.

We use no arbitrage models with macro variables to study the interaction between the macroeconomy and the yield curve. This interaction is a key element for monetary policy and for forecasting. The model was used to analyze the Brazilian domestic financial market using a daily dataset and two...

In this paper, we analyze the productivity of farms across n = 370 municipalities located in the Center-West region of Brazil. We propose a stochastic frontier model with a latent spatial structure to account for possible unknown geographical variation of the outputs. This spatial component is...

The objective of our work is to study the term structure of interest rates and the sovereign credit spreads of emerging markets. We develop a model from term structure, credit risk and vector autoregressive models, based on the articles by Ang and Piazzesi (2003) and Ang, Dong and Piazzesi...
