利用欧洲美元回报的期限结构,估计市场认为美联储可能回归利率目标制的概率,模型未被拒绝且估计结果合理。

Abstract

During the period following October 1979 through 1982.the U.S. Federal Reserve allowed interest rates to fluctuate widely, in contrast to its previous policy of targeting these rates in the 197CThe policy was abandoned in 1982 in favor of an operating procedure that reduced the variation in interest rates.This paper implements an estimation method to identify from the term structure of Eurodollar returns the market's beliefs that the Fed may revert to interest rate targeting.The model is not rejected and gives plausible estimates of the probability of a switch in monetary regimes.
