| Abstract: | In the paper alternative models of the term structure of interest rates are classified in two different approaches: the no-arbitrage and the general equilibrium approach. It is maintained that the general equilibrium approach is superior on a theoretical ground for two main reasons: first, relevant variables, such as the spot interest rate and the interest risk-premium, are endogenous; second, the relationship between the real and the financial side of the economy becomes a clear and important element in the understanding of the term structure. |
