Does the Yield Curve Signal Recessions? New Evidence from an International Panel Data Analysis

Jean-Baptiste Hasse and Quentin Lajaunie ()

No 2013, AMSE Working Papers from Aix-Marseille School of Economics, France

Abstract: In this paper, we reexamine the predictive power of the yield spread across countries and over time. Using a dynamic panel/dichotomous model framework and a unique dataset covering 13 OECD countries over a period of 45 years, we empirically show that the yield spread signals recessions. This result is robust to different econometric specifications, controlling for recession risk factors and time sampling. Using a new cluster analysis methodology, we present empirical evidence of a partial homogeneity of the predictive power of the yield spread. Our results provide a valuable framework for monitoring economic cycles.
