| Tiivistelmä: | When starting from the observation that in existing fixed income markets one typically faces term structures of interest rates that cover a fixed and constant range of times to maturity this paper has developed an arbitrage-based model of the term structure of interest rates that incorporates this observation in a meaningful way and is compatible with any observed yield curve at the starting point of the model. In particular the paper proposes to close existing HJM-type models of the term structure by adding a stochastic process that describes the prices at the date of issue of zero coupon bonds of the longest time to maturity. Including such a process in a term structure model creates an additional degree of freedom to reflect market information fromtime series of long-term interest rates in the model. |
