This report covers in considerable detail the legal as well as institutional struc- tures of the Serbian bond market, and compares these to the evolution of the recent- ly developed bond markets in the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, and Slovakia. The core of the study is a technical section on the estimation of the bond yield curve in Serbia using the Nelson-Siegel Model, followed by an illustration of how parame- ter estimates can be utilized to forecast the term structure. This analysis was con- strained by limited data availability on the over-the-counter market. About 80% of overall trading volume takes place over-the-counter but prices are only reported. | BANKING ON OPPORTUNITY A SCAN OF THE EVOLVING FIELD OF BANK ON INITIATIVES bank on USR US DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY Office of Financial Education and Financial Access Prepared by the National League of Cities Institute for Youth Education and Families under contract with CFED and the U.S. Department of the Treasury.
