Issues like structural breaks and misspecification biases make it difficult to find a term structure of interest rates forecast model that dominates all competitors. Focusing on Brazilian data, this paper aims to identify the existence of combining methods that provide superior performance than...

Corporate credit spreads are modelled through a Hidden Markov model (HMM) which is based on a discretised Ornstein-Uhlenbeck model. We forecast the credit spreads within this HMM and filter out state-related information hidden in the observed spreads. We build a long short-term memory recurrent...

I propose a deep learning term structure forecasting model by introducing a Nelson-Siegel layer that generates smooth yield curve forecasts while explaining the stylized facts of the term structure of interest rates. It is flexible enough to easily incorporate time-varying or time-invariant...

The term structure of inflation forecasts disagreement in the US can be summarized by two components: disagreement … about the trend inflation, and disagreement about the cyclical inflation. While the former has identical impacts on … forecasting horizons. Only the cyclical inflation disagreement has a significant impact on monetary policy efficacy. High …

In this research paper ARCH-type models are applied in order to estimate the Value-at-Risk (VaR) of an inflation …-index futures portfolio for several time-horizons. The empirical analysis is carried out for Mexican inflation-indexed futures … time horizons. These results have implications for short-term inflation forecasts. By estimating confidence intervals in …
