The purpose of this paper is to show that an affine model which incorporates the condition of no arbitrage enables improvements in forecasting the term structure of interest rates in Mexico. The three factors of the yield curve (level, slope and curvature) used in the model are estimated by the...

In this paper I discuss the modeling of the yield in discrete time. The popular Nelson-Siegel model and the Vasicek-factors model are presented in the same framework then it is simple to compare them.

The model proposed by Nelson and Siegel (1987) has been used for several researcher to fit the yield curve. In this paper we propose a discrete-time version of that model by using dynamic factors, such that the model is dynamic in the sense proposed by Diebold and Li (2006). We found the exact...

Con el propósito de brindar una herramienta que permita una major gestión de riesgos y una adecuada regulación, en este trabajo se aplica una metodología para la medición de riesgo de tasa de interés. Luego de la estimación y simulación de la estructura temporal de tasas de interés se...

This document studies the recent evolution of the break-even-inflation implicit in the yields of long-term financial instruments in Mexico. In particular, it analyzes the dynamics of its main components: the long-run inflation expectation and the inflationary risk premium, which are estimated by...

Four specifications of an affine model with risk aversion and no arbitrage conditions are estimated for the Mexican Term Structure of Interest Rates, contrasting their empirical properties and the accuracy of their in and out of sample forecasts. The traditional models are extended by adding...

En este trabajo analizamos el comportamiento dinámico del tipo de interés a un mes del mercado interbancario español entre 1987 y 2001. Se utiliza un proceso de difusión tipo raíz cuadrada que permite que el tipo cambie dependiendo del estado de la economía. El cambio entre regímenes es...
