Theoretically the spot yield for a particular term to maturity is the same as the yield
A Guide to Duration, DV01, and Yield Curve Risk ...
www.closemountain.comReview of DV01, Duration, Yield Curves, and Partial DV01 Duration and DV01 are the foundation for virtually all fixed income risk analysis. For total duration or DV01 (using the yield-to-maturity rather than a complete yield curve) the ideas are well-known. Nonetheless, it will prove useful to review the basic concepts.

people.stern.nyu.edu1 By well behaved term structures, I would include a normal upward sloping yield curve, where long term rates are at most 2-3% higher than short term rates. 2 In investment analysis, where we look at projects, these durations are usually between 3 and 10 years.
Basel Committee on Banking Supervision Standards
www.bis.orgarises from the term structure of banking book instruments, and describes the risk arising from the timing of instruments’ rate changes. The extent of gap risk depends on whether changes to the term structure of interest rates occur consistently across the yield curve (parallel risk) or differentially by period (non-parallel risk).
