This paper investigates the holding period risk premia of U.S. corporate and Treasury bonds. Using excess return regressions, two priced risk factors are derived from yield and macroeconomic data: a priced term risk factor and a priced credit risk factor explain half of the variation in one-year corporate and Treasury excess returns. The information of the term risk factor is not represented by major yield characteristics but is a hidden risk factor whereas the credit risk factor is not hidden. The term risk premium is earned primarily for exposure to inflation and the yield level and the credit risk premium is earned for an exposure to real growth and the credit spread level. The regression results are usefull for the specification of the market prices of risk in affine credit term structure models: The two-factor representation of the risk premium suggests a rank restriction on the market prices of risk and an additional pricing factor to capture the hidden property of term risk.
