Abstract

This paper proposes a simple two-factor model of nominal term structure of interest rates, in which the log-price kernel has an autoregressive drift process and a nonlinear GARCH volatility process. Given these two state-variable processes, closed-form expressions are derived for the zero-coupon bond prices and the yield to maturity for a given time to maturity.
