It represents the more fundamental element of a benchmark’s specification, as it defines the objective for establishing the benchmark, and is intended to be an enduring statement of the economic concept of what the benchmark seeks to represent.

Euribor® represents ‘the rate at which wholesale funds in euro could be obtained by credit institutions in current and former EU and EFTA countries in the unsecured money market’.

Euribor®  is calculated following the Hybrid Methodology (see Benchmark Determination Methodology for Euribor®).

The Hybrid Methodology is based on a waterfall of input data: real transactions in the wholesale money market are used whenever available and eligible.

If there are no transactions in the Underlying Interest, the Hybrid Methodology relies on other related market pricing sources to ensure Euribor’s robustness.

The European Money Market Institute reviews the determination methodology for Euribor® annually.

The Benchmark Determination Methodology for Euribor® relies on contributions from Panel Banks, which are active participants in the euro money market.

Currently, the Euribor® Panel consists of 18 banks and is fully representative of the Underlying Interest.
