主講人簡介：
賈明遠博士2019年畢業于美國加州大學河濱分校(UC, Riverside)，現供職于新葡的京集團350vip8888經濟與管理研究院。賈明遠博士曾受邀擔任Quantitative Economics 和 Empirical Economics 的匿名審稿人。 他的研究興趣包括應用宏觀經濟學和時間序列分析。賈明遠博士目前的研究力圖構建新的計量模型，利用混頻和高頻數據對宏觀經濟狀況和貨幣政策走向進行實時監控和預測。
Abstract：We build the term structure of inflation expectation with a Nelson-Siegel dynamic factor model. The inflation expectations are summarized using the latent level, slope, and curvature factors. We also show that the model breaks down the nominal yield spread into real interest rate and inflation expectation. A decomposition of the yield curve into its expectations and risk premia components helps disentangle the channels that connect fluctuations in treasury rates and the future state of the economy. In particular, a change in the yield curve slope due to expected real rate path or inflation expectation path is associated with future industrial production growth and the probability of recession. In contrast, the term premium component appears to have lost the predictive power significantly.
