"Term Structure Forecasting and Scenario Generation" by Professor and Nobel Laureate Robert Engle

Nobel Laureate Professor Robert Engle and Stern alumnus Emil Siriwardane (PhD '15) of Harvard Business School develop a statistical model to generate probability-based scenarios for forecasting and management of long-term risks. A reduced rank vector autoregression with time-varying volatilities and correlations, the model forecasts transformed daily forward interest rates over a 10-year horizon.
