摘要：
In this paper, we provide new empirical evidence on the relationship between short and long run interest rates for Germany. We find a positive correlation after a supply and demand shock and a negative correlation after a monetary policy shock. This finding is consistent with the theory of Ellingsen and Soderstrom [American Economic Review 2001;91(5):1594-1607]. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
