A diffusion approximation for the riskless profit under selling of discrete time call options: Non-identically distributed jumps
Nagaev, Alexander V.; Nagaev, Sergei A.; Kunst, Robert M. - 2005
A discrete time model of financial markets is considered. It is assumed that the relative jumps of the risky security price are independent non-identically distributed random variables. In the focus of attention is the expected non-risky profit of the investor that arises when the jumps of the...

The Markov-switching multi-fractal model of asset returns: GMM estimation and linear forecasting of volatility
Lux, Thomas - 2004
Bayesian forecasting of volatility. However, applicability of MLE is restricted to cases with a discrete distribution of … volatility components. From a practical point of view, ML also becomes computationally unfeasible for large numbers of components … forecasts which in principle is applicable for any continuous distribution with any number of volatility components.

Centralized trading of corporate bonds
Huber, Samuel; Kim, Jaehong - 2015

Central bank purchases of government bonds
Huber, Samuel; Kim, Jaehong - 2015
We develop a dynamic general equilibrium model to analyze the effects of central bank purchases of government bonds by investigating the following three questions: Under what conditions are these purchases socially desirable, what incentive problems do they mitigate, and how large are these...

Bidding and performance in repo auctions: evidence from ECB open market operations
Nyborg, Kjell G.; Strebulaev, Ilya A.; Bindseil, Ulrich - 2002
We study bidder bahavior and performance in 53 main refinancing operations (repo auctions) of the European Central Bank (ECB). The data set starts with the first auctions after the ECB changed from fixed rate tenders to variable rate tenders. We find that private information and the winnner's...

Structural econometric approach to bidding in the main refinancing operations of the Eurosystem
Cassola, Nuno; Ewerhart, Christian; Morana, Claudio - 2007
This paper contributes to the existing literature on central bank repoauctions. It is based on a structural econometric approach, whereby the primitives of bidding behavior (individual bid schedules and bid-shading components) are directly estimated. With the estimated parameters we calibrate a...

An empirical analysis of Swedish government bond yields
Akram, Tanweer; Yadav, Mahima - 2024
This paper econometrically models the dynamics of Swedish government bond (SGB) yields. It examines whether the short-term interest rate has a decisive influence on long-term SGB yields, after controlling for other macroeconomic and financial variables, such as consumer price inflation, the...

Empirical models of Chinese government bond yields
Akram, Tanweer; Pervin, Shahida - 2024
This paper econometrically models the dynamics of long-term Chinese government bond (CGB) yields based on key macroeconomic and financial variables. It deploys autoregressive distributive lag (ARDL) models to examine whether the short-term interest rate has a decisive influence on the long-term...

Akram, Tanweer; al Mamun, Khawaja Abdullah - 2024
This paper examines the dynamics of euro-denominated (EUR) long-term interest rate swap yields. It shows that the short-term interest rate has an economically and statistically significant effect on EUR swap yields of different maturity tenors, after controlling for various key macroeconomic...
