  • SEC Staff Statement On LIBOR Transition - Division Of Corporation Finance, Division Of Investment Management, Division Of Trading And Markets, And Office Of The Chief Accountant[1]

    Date 12/07/2019

    LIBOR is an indicative measure of the average interest rate at which major global banks could borrow from one another.  LIBOR is quoted in multiple currencies and multiple time frames using data reported by private-sector banks.  LIBOR is used extensively in the U.S. and globally as a “benchmark” or “reference rate” for various commercial and financial contracts, including corporate and municipal bonds and loans, floating rate mortgages, asset-backed securities, consumer loans, and interest rate swaps and other derivatives.  It is expected that a number of private-sector banks currently reporting information used to set LIBOR will stop doing so after 2021 when their current reporting commitment ends, which could either cause LIBOR to stop publication immediately or cause LIBOR’s regulator to determine that its quality has degraded to the degree that it is no longer representative of its underlying market.  As regulators and market participants seek to avoid business and market disruptions resulting from the expected discontinuation of LIBOR, implementing alternative reference rates in advance of the discontinuation has taken on urgency.  As described in more detail below, the U.S. and other countries are currently working to replace LIBOR with alternative reference rates.
