Parallel and Non-parallel Shifts in Yield Curve
Premium
Parallel Shift
Rates across the maturity spectrum change by a constant amount and the slope of the yield curve remains consistent.
Non-Parallel Shifts
- Twist: The slope of the yield curve becomes flatter (the spread between short and long term yields narrows) or steeper (the spread between short and long term yields widens).
