Parameter uncertainty and the rational expectations model of the term structure
Article Abstract:
The parameter uncertainty hypothesis is used to explain findings that interest rates do not behave as predicted by the expectations model of the term structure and efficient markets-rational expectations hypothesis. It is shown that inconsistency with the joint hypothesis occurs if the rational expectations are defined in a Muthian form, wherein market participants know the model parameters that relate current information to future interest rates.
