Ireland Yield 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).
| 2Y vs 1Y | -71.6 bp | Yield Curve is inverted in Short-Term Maturities | ||
| 5Y vs 2Y | 1 bp | Yield Curve is flat in Mid-Term vs Short-Term Maturities | ||
| 10Y vs 2Y | 30.5 bp | Normal Convexity in Long-Term vs Short-Term Maturities |
