What is JIBOR 3 Month (JIBOR_3M)?

JIBOR 3 Month is an interbank benchmark rate — the interest rate at which large financial institutions lend to each other on the short-term money market. These rates reflect the cost of liquidity in the banking system and serve as reference rates for a vast range of financial products.

Interbank rates underpin hundreds of trillions of dollars in financial contracts globally — including floating-rate loans, mortgages, interest rate swaps, and structured products. Following the LIBOR transition, overnight rates like SOFR, SONIA, and ESTR have become the new global benchmarks.

  • Published daily by central banks or banking associations
  • Calculated from actual overnight transactions
  • Risk-free rate (RFR) alternative to LIBOR
  • Used in ISDA derivative contracts
