| Secondary title: | The modelling of the term structure of German Government Bonds by using the ACM Model |
| Secondary abstract: | Market agents can invest in short- or long-term bonds. The latter are more exposed to various types of market risks. This is why the risk-averse investors demand a compensation in a form of risk premium. A nominal yield can be decomposed into two components: risk-neutral yield and term premium. None of the components is directly observable, therefore they need to be estimated by using econometric models. The present thesis covers a detailed mathematical derivation of the ACM model and its application to the modelling of the term structure of German government bonds. It assesses and compares the in- and out-of-sample performance of the model's variations. In-sample analysis includes approximation and decomposition of the term structure of interest rates. The dynamics of both components over time is interpreted from the macroeconomic point of view. Out-of-sample analysis generates and compares short-rate predictions up to three years ahead. |
