We build a multi-factor, no-arbitrage model of the term structure of spot interest rates. The stochastic factors are the short-term interest rate and the premia of the futures rates over the short-term interest rates.(...)

We build a three-factor term-structure of interest rates model and use it to price corporate bonds. The first two factors allow the risk-free term structure to shift and tilt. The third factor generates a stochastic credit-risk premium. To implement the model, we apply the Peterson and Stapleton...
