This paper analyzes the interest rate setting of the European Central Bank (ECB) both before and after the outbreak of the global financial crisis. In the current monetary policy literature, researchers typically select one Taylor rule-based model in order to analyze the interest rate setting of...

We introduce a Nelson-Siegel type interest rate term structure model with the underlying yield factors following … struc- ture and are associated with the time-varying uncertainty of the yield curve's level, slope and curvature. Estimating … the model based on U.S. government bond yields applying Markov chain Monte Carlo techniques we find that the yield factors …

We study the determinants of sovereign bond yield spreads across 10 EMU countries between Q1/1999 and Q1/2010. We apply … a semiparametric time-varying coefficient model to identify, to what extent an observed change in the yield spread is …

We revisit the concept of the cost of hedging inflation risks put forward in Bodie (1976). When doing so, we employ a time-varying vector autoregressive model to describe the dynamics of asset returns. We estimate this model by means of the kernel-based methods discussed in Giraitis et al....
