Government Yield Curves Analysis

Government bond yield curves for each major currency area are estimated using the Nelson-Siegel-Svensson (NSS) model, a standard framework for extracting smooth yield curves and market expectations from observed bond prices.

Nelson-Siegel-Svensson Model

The NSS model is a widely adopted framework for yield curve estimation, used by central banks and fixed income desks globally. It fits a smooth mathematical curve through observed bond prices to estimate yields at any maturity, using six parameters (β₀, β₁, β₂, β₃, λ₁, λ₂) that capture the level, slope, and curvature of the term structure.

Global Trends Analysis

Policy Synchronization

Monetary policy cycles across major economies exhibit varying degrees of synchronization, driven by divergent inflation trajectories and growth dynamics.

Synchronization:
  • High Sync: Fed & BoC (North American cycle)
  • Medium Sync: ECB & BoE (European cycle)
  • Low Sync: BoJ (unique deflation concerns)
  • Independent: PBOC & RBI (domestic priorities)
Key Divergence Factors
  • Inflation: Differing pace of disinflation across regions
  • Labor markets: Varying tightness and wage growth
  • Growth: Divergent GDP trajectories
  • Financial stability: Region-specific banking and market conditions
  • Currencies: Exchange rate effects on policy decisions
  • Geopolitics: Trade tensions and sanctions
