South Korea Yield Curve Analysis
Normally, longer-duration interest rates are higher than short-duration. So, the yield curve normally slopes upward as duration increases.
For this reason, the spread (i.e. the yield difference) between a longer and a shorter bond should be positive.
If not, the yield curve can be flat or inverted.
The curve convexity is measured considering some key bond durations (usually 2 years and 10 years, but also other maturities).
