Using the following information, determine the maturity risk premium on 10 year bonds:
Rate | % |
inflation | 1.59 |
T-bill | 5.00 |
10y T-Bond | 6.00 |
10y AAA Corporate | 6.35 |
10y AA Corporate | 7.71 |
The 10-Year T-bond rate is 6% and the 1 Year T-Bond rate is 5%.
So Maturity Risk Premium = The 10-Year T-bond rate - 1 Year T-Bond rate
= 6% - 5%
= 1%
