Popis: Discrete-time forward interest rate curve models are studied, where the curves are driven by a random field. Under the assumption of no-arbitrage, the maximum likelihood estimator of the volatility parameter is given and its asymptotic behaviour is studied. First, the so-called martingale models are examined, but we will also deal with the general case, where we include the market price of risk in the discount factor.
