Another approach to build a yield curve, we need to combine current deposit rates, futures prices, treasury yields, and interest rate swap spreads together. Those factors make up today’s coupon yield curve. See Zheng Juntian, Analysis of the Discount Factors in Swap Valuation, Uppsala University, 2010 p. 23
