Tiivistelmä: | Using a combination of the interest rate (hereafter as: i-rts.) models introduced by Longstaff and Schwartz (1992) and Bali (2000), this paper tests for asymmetric mean reversion in European short-term i-rts. Based on weekly rates for France, Germany and the United Kingdom (U.K.), short-term rates are found to follow in all instances asymmetric mean reverting processes. Especially, i-rts. exhibit non-stationary behaviour following rate increases, but they are strongly mean reverting following rate decreases etc. |
