Abstract In short rate models, bond prices and term structures of interest rates are determined by the parameters of the model and the current level of the instantaneous interest rate (so called short rate). The instantaneous interest rate can be approximated by the market overnight, which, however, can be influenced by speculations on the market. The aim of this paper is to propose a calibration method, where we consider the short rate to be a variable unobservable on the market and estimate it together with the model parameters for the case of the Vasicek model

Abstract We propose a no-arbitrage model of the nominal and real term structures that accommodates the different persistence and volatility of distinct inflation components. Core, food, and energy inflation combine into a single total inflation measure that ties nominal and real risk-free bond prices together. The model successfully extracts market participants’ expectations of future inflation from nominal yields and inflation data. Estimation uncovers a factor structure common to core inflation and interest rates and downplays the pass-through effect of short-lived food and energy shocks on inflation and interest rates. Model forecasts systematically outperform survey forecasts and other benchmarks. Authors have furnished an Internet Appendix, which is available on the Oxford University Press Web site next to the link to the final published paper online.
