Parameter Estimation for the CIR model
This paper uses the equilibrium
model of the term structure of interest rates based on the framework
of Cox, Ingersoll and Ross (CIR, 1985). The contributions of
this paper to the literature are empirical and the purpose is
to derive estimates of parameters that fit the Continuous time
CIR model using the available discrete market data of the yield
curve. CIR one-factor model allows the conditional mean (drift)
and conditional variance (diffusion) to be functions of the
current short rate. The parameters have been estimated over
different data sets, time periods and estimation techniques.
