Interest Rate Targeting and the Dynamics of Short-Term Rates Author info | Abstract | Publisher info | Download info | Related research | Statistics Balduzzi, Pierluigi, et al
Additional information is available for the following
registered author(s):
A feature of U.S. monetary policy has been active targeting of overnight fed funds rates. The authors show that, during a period of tight targeting (1989-96), term fed funds spreads from the target displayed pronounced volatility and persistence, which increase with the maturity of the loan. They show that the increase in persistence is consistent with a model of infrequent, but predictable, revisions of the target. In the authors' model, the (autoco-)variance of the spreads of term fed funds rates from the target increases with the maturity because longer-term rates reflect persistent expectations of the next target change. Coauthors are Giuseppe Bertola, Silverio Foresi, and Leora Klapper.
