48 results for “short-term interest rates”
We propose a multifractal model for short-term interest rates. The model is a version of the Markov-Switching Multifractal (MSM), which incorporates the well-known level effect observed in interest rates. Unlike previously suggested models, the level-MSM model captures the power-law scaling of the structure functions a…
Long-range dependence in Interest Rates and Monetary Policyphysics.data-an
