## Abstract This article presents a twoโfactor model of the term structure of interest rates. It is assumed that defaultโfree discount bond prices are determined by the time to maturity and two factors, the longโterm interest rate, and the spread (i.e., the difference) between the shortโterm (insta
## Abstract We consider a new approach for estimating the coefficients of the term structure equation in twoโfactor models. This approach is based on the fact that the riskโneutral drifts of the factors are directly estimated. Therefore, the market prices of risk and the physical drifts do not have
