The yield curve, one of the key economic indicators used by economists and investors, is a measure of the difference between the interest rates on short-term loans (or bonds) and those on long-term loans (or bonds). Under normal economic conditions, interest rates on short-term loans are lower than on long-term loans. That is because there is generally less risk that a company will default on its debts in the next 30 days than in the next 30 years. There is also less risk that inflation will eat into the value of money repaid on a short-term loan than on a loan that is repaid decades from now. Less risk for lenders equals a lower interest rate costs for borrowers. To view the U.S. Treasury Department’s Daily Treasury Yield Curve Rates, please click on the logo to the left.
