WHAT DOES LIBOR MEAN IN ENGLISH?

LIBOR

Libor

The London Interbank Offered Rate is the average interest rate estimated by leading banks in London that they would be charged if borrowing from other banks. It is usually abbreviated to Libor /ˈlaɪbɔr/ or LIBOR, or more officially to ICE LIBOR. It was formerly known as BBA Libor before the responsibility for the administration was transferred to Intercontinental Exchange. It is the primary benchmark, along with the Euribor, for short term interest rates around the world. Libor rates are calculated for 5 currencies and 7 borrowing periods ranging from overnight to one year and are published daily at 11:30 am by Thomson Reuters. Many financial institutions, mortgage lenders and credit card agencies set their own rates relative to it. At least $350 trillion in derivatives and other financial products are tied to the Libor. In June 2012, multiple criminal settlements by Barclays Bank revealed significant fraud and collusion by member banks connected to the rate submissions, leading to the Libor scandal.
