  The Empirics of Canadian Government Securities Yields

  Tanweer Akram, and Anupam Das
  Abstract

  Keynes argued that the short-term interest rate is the main driver of the long-term interest rate. This paper empirically models the relationship between short-term interest rates and long-term government securities yields in Canada, after controlling for other important financial variables. The statistical analysis uses high-frequency daily data from 1990 to 2018. It applies both the […]

  Australian Government Bonds’ Nominal Yields

  Tanweer Akram, and Anupam Das
  Abstract

  The short-term interest rate is the main driver of the Commonwealth of Australia government bonds’ nominal yields. This paper empirically models the dynamics of government bonds’ nominal yields using the autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) approach. Keynes held that the central bank exerts decisive influence on government bond yields because the central bank’s policy rate and […]

  The Dynamics of Government Bond Yields in the Eurozone

  Tanweer Akram, and Anupam Das
  Abstract

  This paper investigates the determinants of nominal yields of government bonds in the eurozone. The pooled mean group (PMG) technique of cointegration is applied on both monthly and quarterly datasets to examine the major drivers of nominal yields of long-term government bonds in a set of 11 eurozone countries. Furthermore, autoregressive distributive lag (ARDL) methods […]

  Abstract

It examines whether John Maynard Keynes’s supposition that short-term interest rates are the key driver of long-term government bond yields holds over the long-run horizon, after controlling for various key economic factors such as inflationary pressure and measures of economic activity. It […]

  Does Keynesian Theory Explain Indian Government Bond Yields?

  Tanweer Akram, and Anupam Das
  Abstract

  John Maynard Keynes held that the central bank’s actions determine long-term interest rates through short-term interest rates and various monetary policy measures. His conjectures about the determinants of long-term interest rates were made in the context of advanced capitalist economies, and were based on his views on ontological uncertainty and the formation of investors’ expectations. […]

  The Determinants of Long-Term Japanese Government Bonds’ Low Nominal Yields

  Tanweer Akram, and Anupam Das
  Abstract

  During the past two decades of economic stagnation and persistent deflation in Japan, chronic fiscal deficits have led to elevated and rising ratios of government debt to nominal GDP. Nevertheless, long-term Japanese government bonds’ (JGBs) nominal yields initially declined and have stayed remarkably low and stable since then. This is contrary to the received wisdom […]

  Οι προσδιοριστικοί παράγοντες των χαμηλών ονομαστικών αποδόσεων στα μακροπρόθεσμα κρατικά ομόλογα της Ιαπωνίας

  Tanweer Akram, and Anupam Das
  Abstract

  Κατά τη διάρκεια των τελευταίων δύο δεκαετιών οικονομικής στασιμότητας και επίμονου αποπληθωρισμού στην Ιαπωνία, τα χρόνια δημοσιονομικά ελλείμματα έχουν οδηγήσει σε υψηλά και συνεχώς αυξανόμενα επίπεδα την αναλογία του δημόσιου χρέους προς το ονομαστικό ΑΕΠ. Παρ\’ όλα αυτά, οι ονομαστικές αποδόσεις των μακροπρόθεσμων κρατικών ομολόγων της Ιαπωνίας μειώθηκαν αρχικά και έκτοτε έχουν μείνει σε εξαιρετικά […]
