Affine Nelson-Siegel model

Author

Listed:
  • Alfaro, Rodrigo A.

Abstract

We introduce a discrete-time version of the dynamic yield curve model proposed by Diebold and Li (2006) which is based on Nelson and Siegel (1987). As in Christensen et al. (2010) we found an affine process that matches the model.
