Excerpt from The Behavior of the Term Structure of Interest Rates in a Real Business Cycle Model
This paper follows the tradition of real business cycle (rbc) theory as initiated by Kydland and Prescott A basic premise of this line of research is the view that aggregate macroeconomic models should be evaluated primarily with regard to their ability to replicate observed empirical regularities. Thus far, attention has focused principally on the ability of this class of models to approximate, satisfactorily, the matrix of variances and covariances of macroeconomic aggregates.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book analyzes the term structure of interest rates in a real business cycle (RBC) environment. Building on the neoclassical one-good growth model, the author employs a numerical examination to explore the term structure's behavior over an artificial economy's business cycle. The book considers the shape of the yield curve, conditional and average term structures, the information content of the yield curve, and the impact of shifts in the economy's underlying parameters. The author shows that the shape of the yield curve is cyclical, changing as the economy moves between different states. Additionally, the book examines the efficiency of the yield curve in predicting future interest rates, suggesting that forward rates may not be reliable forecasters. Lastly, the author explores how changes in the economy's structure, such as alterations in time preferences or attitudes toward risk, affect the yield curve. The book contributes to the understanding of the relationship between interest rates and the real economy, providing insights that are relevant to investors, economists, and policymakers interested in financial markets and macroeconomic phenomena.
