| Abstract: | The paper derives a single-factor duration model of bond returns from an underlying stochastic process of the term structure of the interest rates. Using Canadian monthly prices on default- free government bonds, the model performs well from 1963 to 1986, but stationarity cannot be accepted. The models of the present paper encompass a variety of linear bond return models. |
