Fuzzy Differences in Differences
Abstract
A large part of the term structure literature interprets one of the under-lying factors as a level factor. In this paper we consider a single factor modelinterpretable as a level factor model. We prove that this model is compat-ible with no-arbitrage restrictions and the positivity of rates under ratherunrealistic conditions on the dynamic of the short term interest rate. Thisintroduces some doubt on the relevance of the level interpretation of a factorin term structure models.Download Info
