    Abstract

    Yields on European sovereign bonds have reached historically low levels in 2016. This secular decline in long-term sovereign yields is not limited to the euro area. Why are interest rates currently so low? Are low long-term rates justified by fundamental factors or is it an artificial phenomenon?
