Abstract

With quarterly data of a sample period starting from 1973, the conventional unit root tests reject the null of nonstationarity in favor of the alternative of linear stationarity for short-term real interest rates (RIRs) of non-European industrial countries. There is evidence of nonlinearities in many European countries’ RIRs, most of which appear to be stationary exponential smooth transition autoregressive processes.
