Oil price shocks and the term structure of the US yield curve: a time-frequency analysis of spillovers and risk transmission.

This paper investigates the influence of oil demand, oil supply, and risk-driven shocks on the yield curve in the US between 1995 and 2020. The US term-structure shape is modeled by three structural factors, the level, slope, and curvature. Their empirical analysis is performed according to the Diebold-Li modified variant of the widely used Nelson-Siegel model.
