LIBOR stands for London InterBank Offered Rate. It is the interest rate at which banks borrow money from one another when they are short of cash or have surplus.

The LIBOR is widely used as a reference rate for financial instruments such as

· forward rate agreements

· short-term-interest-rate futures contracts

· interest rate swaps

· inflation swaps

· floating rate notes

· syndicated loans

· variable rate mortgages

· currencies, especially the US dollar
