8、 and the quantity of loanable funds is represented by a shift from DF1 to DF2,Japanese investors refrain from buying U.S.interest-bearing securities.,This represents a decrease in the supply of loanable funds from SF1 to SF2,The relationship between inflation and the level of interest rates,The Fish
9、er relation decomposes the nominal market interest rate(i)into:an expected real interest rate component(r),an expected inflation premium(pe),and the cross-product between the real rate and expected inflation premium:(1+i)=(1+r)(1+pe),or i=r+pe+r x peThe cross product term r x pe is often ignored,hen
10、ce the nominal rate is composed of the real rate of interest plus expected inflation:i=r+pe,The Fisher Relation:i=r+pe,The expected real rate,r,represents the required return to investors to compensate them for postponing consumption.The inflation premium is the return needed to compensate investors
11、 for the loss of purchasing power.,The relationship between nominal interest rates and inflation.,Fisher effect implies a one-to-one relationship between changes in expected inflation and changes in nominal interest rates.i=r+peFisher assumed that the ex ante real rate is constant,hence a pe does no
12、t affect r:i=peThe nominal interest rate fully adjusts to changes in expected inflation.As expected inflation increases from 2 to 5%,the market rate changes from 5 to 8%.,The relationship between changes in expected inflation and the real rate,expected inflation,and nominal interest rates(percentage

14、make up for the loss in real wealth.As savings is increased,the supply of loanable funds increases,hence the real rate of interest falls.,Mundell-Tobin(continued),Since r falls,from an increase in savings,as pe increases,what is the impact on i?i=r+peWe do know that:i pe.Hence,a less that a one-to-o

17、e than the change in expected inflation to compensate investors for the additional taxes paid on higher nominal returns.,Darby-Feldsteinthe difference between Fisher and Darby-Feldstein is the tax factor 1/(1-t),Fisher:i=r+peDarby-Feldstein:i=rat/(1-t)+pe/(1-t)Example:a 20 percent marginal tax rate
18、means the tax factor equals 1.25(1/(1-0.2)assuming a constant ex ante real rate of 3%.an increase in expected inflation from 2%to 5%(3%increase)means market rates from 6.25%to 10%(a 3%x 1.25 increase).,The relationship between changes in expected inflation and the real rate,expected inflation,and no

29、neral relationship is also referred to as the term structure of interest rates.,Most recent yield curves,General shape of yield curves,Theories of the term structure of interest rates,There are three common theories of the term structure of interest rates:the pure expectations theory(PET),the liquid
30、ity premium theory,and the market segmentation theory.,Unbiased expectations theoryAttributes the relationship between yields on different maturity securities entirely to difference in expectations of future interest rates.,Long-term interest rates are an average of current and expected short-term i
31、nterest rates.The expected short-term interest rate is the markets unbiased forecast of future interest rates.,Liquidity premium theoryextends the unbiased expectations theory by incorporating investor expectations of price risk in establishing market rates.,The unbiased expectations theory assumes
32、that securities that differ only in terms of maturity are perfect substitutes.If the expected return on a series of short-term securities equals the expected return on a long-term security,investors will prefer the short-term securities.,Market segmentation theory Interest rates on securities with d
33、ifferent maturities are determined by distinct supply and demand conditions within each maturity.,Borrowers and lenders concentrate their transactions within preferred maturities and cannot be induced to substitute between maturities by small yield changes.,Market segmentation theory(continued),Mark
34、et segmentation theory is based on the premise that investors and borrowers do not view securities with different maturities as perfect substitutes.Market participants tend to concentrate their transactions within specific maturity ranges,regardless of interest rates on securities outside the prefer
35、red maturities.Interest rates are thus determined by distinct supply and demand conditions within each maturity group,and changes in interest rates do not induce any substitution.,Market segmentation theory(continued),Maturity restrictions resulting from government regulation create what can be seen
36、 as strong form market segmentation.Borrowers and lenders have rigid,legal restrictions that prohibit maturity substitution.,Pure market segmentationShort-term and long term markets are segmented.,yield curve,The yield curve and the business cycle,During the early stages of expansion,unemployment an
37、d inflation are relative low,typically we see and upward sloping yield curve.At the peak,loan demand is high,inflation is high and rising and the Fed acts to reduce the growth in loanable funds,thus we often see a flat or downward sloping yield curve.,Term to repricing for variable rate and floating
38、 rate securities,A security is classified as variable rate if the applicable market interest rate is reset at predetermined intervals.The security is classified as floating rate if the applicable market interest rate is tied to some index and changes whenever the index changes.LIBOR,a popular floati

40、,C,D,Municipal Notes and Commercial Paper,Marketability and liquidity,All assets can be converted to cash if the holder has enough time to find a buyer and negotiate terms.Liquidity EffectsLiquidity refers to the speed and ease with which an asset can be converted to cash and to the certainty of the
41、 price received.Marketability refers to the speed and ease with which an asset can be sold and converted to cash.Liquidity PremiumsHighly liquid assets carry the lowest rates,low liquidity securities typically pay a liquidity premium.,Special features or options,Some bonds have call or put options.W
42、ith a call option,the issuer can repurchase a bond,prior to maturity,with a call option.Bonds with put options give the right to the lender,or investor,to require the issuer to buy back the bond at a predetermined price.Some bonds are issued which can be converted into the common stock of the compan
43、y.This option gives the investor the right to convert the bonds fixed payments into common stock and hence reap the benefits of exceptional performance of the company.,Call provisionsenables the issuer of a security to call an outstanding bond for repayment at a predetermined price prior to final ma
44、turity.,A call option has value to a borrower and is priced accordingly.Investors demand a higher interest rate on callable bonds since they generally assume the bond will be called.Callable bonds are usually price in term of yield to first call.,Put optionsgives the lender the right to put,or sell,
45、a security back to the issuer at a predetermined price prior to final maturity.,A put option has value to an investor because the predetermined price is typically at least par,and the investor can sell the security without a loss if interest rates rise.,Convertibilitymake fixed coupon payments(like
46、straight bonds)but allow holders to convert the bonds to common stock at a predetermined price.,The conversion feature has value,investors are willing to accept a yield below that offered on straight debt.Convertibles are riskier than straight bonds because the claims of their owners are subordinated to the claims of straight bondholders.,THE DETERMINATES OF INTEREST RATES,Chapter 7,Bank Management,
