Abstract

Con riferimento allaDirect Term Structure Estimation, si propone una parametrizzazione mediantespline monotone come alternativa al tradizionale impiego dei polinomi di Bernstein. La sperimentazione effettuata con dati del Mercato Telematico dei titoli di Stato dimostra l'efficacia del metodo.
