Pricing Bond Yields In The European Bond Market, David Cook
Pricing Bond Yields In The European Bond Market, David Cook
CMC Senior Theses
This paper analyzes macroeconomic factors and their effect on 2-year government bonds of 11 countries in the European Monetary Union. I specifically looked at how a simultaneous budget and trade surplus effect a country's bond yield spread relative to Germany's bond yield. My model showed that double surplus countries have a larger yield spread than countries that do not have a double surplus.
