Open publisher page 0 citations

Abstract

This paper deals with a mathematical model of short-term interest rate, the Vasicek model. First we recall the notions of zero cupon bond and instantaneous rate, then we present the model and derivation of conditional distribution of interest rate. The final part contains an estimation of the Vasicek model parameters and describes the estimation of parameters on real data.
