Summary
In this thesis, interest rates on bond will be studied from a mathematical point of view. Starting from statistical observation of real interest rates curves, different types of models will be proposed. The arrival point of the dissertation will be a linear three factor model for the forward rate, obtained by computing the principal components of the curve. Another model proposed will be the Mercurio and Moraleda model.
