Abstract:In this paper, the cross-sectional bond pricing model for individual bonds Kariya (1993) proposed by formulating stochastic discount function (term structure) is first applied to Japanese Government bond (JG-bond) data. The model performs very well as it stands. Second, we generalize the cross-sectional model to two types of time-dependent Markov models (TDM's) with the term structure of discount rates of each bond att being dependent on the one att−1, and apply them to the same data to find significantly improved results over those of the cross-sectional model. In fact, almost all the differences between actual prices and model values are less than 0.5 yen in each month over 12 years, implying that the error rate is less than 0.5%. On the basis of our analysis, we propose a TDM as a model for JG-bond trading.
Keywords:Random discount function  time-dependent Markov Model for pricing individual bonds
