Gaussian GenAI: synthetic market data generation
A method to generate financial time series with mixture models is presented
High-frequency movements of the term structure of US interest rates: the role of oil market uncertainty
This paper analyzes the impact of oil market uncertainty on the level, slope and curvature factors derived from the term structure of US interest rates.
Comprehensive Capital Analysis and Review consistent yield curve stress testing: from Nelson–Siegel to machine learning
This paper develops different techniques for interpreting yield curve scenarios generated from the FRB’s annual CCAR review.
Hypothetical yield curve scenarios for credit stress testing
In this paper, we discuss a set of hypothetical yield curve shift scenarios generated by applying extreme value distributions and a shaping procedure. These statistically derived hypothetical stress scenarios could be susceptible to model risk, leading…
Yield curve fitting with artificial intelligence: a comparison of standard fitting methods with artificial intelligence algorithms
In this paper, the author expands standard yield curve fitting techniques to artificial intelligence methods.
The quickest way to lose the money you cannot afford to lose: reverse stress testing with maximum entropy
This paper extends a technique devised by Saroka and Rebonato to “optimally” deform a yield curve in order to deal with a common and practically relevant class of optimization problems subject to linear constraints.
Information of interest
The flow of information in financial markets on future liquidity risk generates the rise and fall of demand for default-free bonds. Here, Dorje Brody and Robyn Friedman present an approach to pricing these bonds and the associated derivatives, based on…
When did the JGB market become efficient?
Focusing on the deviation from the fair-yield curve, Koichi Miyazaki and Satoshi Nomura discuss the transition in efficiency observed in the Japanese government bond market and find out that the turning point was in 1996, when the Japanese repo market…

Mixed default modelling
Structural and reduced-form models are two well-established approaches to modelling afirm’s default risk. Here, Li Chen, Damir Filipovic/ and Vincent Poor develop a new default riskmodelling strategy based on combining these two frameworks in order to…
