Funded Activity Summary

Nonparametric estimation and forecasting of yield curve dynamics. This project aims to develop a suite of nonparametric estimation and forecasting techniques for yield curves, which describe how interest rates vary with different maturities. Its significance for monetary policy and fixed-income investment is interesting to policy makers and financial practitioners. Time-varying features are needed in the specification of the yield curve, given the constantly changing financial environment in which bond markets operate. Expected outcomes include new statistical methods and forecasting procedures applicable to empirical problems in economics and finance.
