RT info:eu-repo/semantics/article T1 The Role of the Risk-Neutral Jump Size Distribution in Single-Factor Interest Rate Models A1 Gómez del Valle, María Lourdes A1 Martínez Rodríguez, Julia K1 Tipos de interés K1 Economía y empresa AB We obtain a result that relates the risk-neutral jump size of interest rates with yield curve data. This function is unobservable;therefore, this result opens a way to estimate the jump size directly fromdata in the markets together with the risk-neutral drift andjump intensity estimations.Then, we investigate the finite sample performance of this approach with a test problem.Moreover, weanalyze the effect of estimating the risk-neutral jump size instead of assuming that it is artificially absorbed by the jump intensity,as usual in the interest rate literature. Finally, an application to US Treasury Bill data is also illustrated.
