Abstract:This paper studies 1-, 3-, 6- and 12-month Euro-rates for 17 countries using between 10 and 30 years of data. Term spreads contain information about future short-term rates in all 51 regressions that the authors estimate. Moreover, in 35 cases they are unable to reject the expectations hypothesis. Using cross-sectional regressions, the authors estimate the variance of the term premium and the correlation of the term premium and the expected change in short rates.
