We propose and test a new channel that links funding liquidity risk and interest rates in short-term funding markets …. Borrowers with high liquidity risk are willing to pay a markup to lock in their funding, independent of risk premiums demanded … borrowers' funding liquidity risk that lead to systematic and persistent heterogeneity in funding costs.

Jesús Fernández-Villaverde, Pablo A. Guerrón-Quintana, Juan F. Rubio-Ramírez and Martín Uribe (2011) find that risk … rate risk shock increases by 63 percent and the contribution of interest rate risk shocks to business cycle volatility more … than doubles. Hence, risk matters more in the recalibrated model. However, the recalibrated model does worse in capturing …

Fluctuations in sovereign bond yields display a large global component which is associated with a rise in uncertainty. We build a model of sovereign default in which shocks to the level and to the volatility of the world interest rate help to account for this phenomenon. We calibrate the model...

International data suggests that fluctuations in the level and volatility of the world interest rate (as measured by the US treasury bill rate) are positively correlated with both the level and volatility of sovereign spreads in emerging economies. We incorporate an estimated time-varying...
