Short-term interest rate refers to the rate at which borrowers can borrow money for a short period of time, typically less than a year. Short-term interest rates are usually lower than long-term interest rates because they carry less risk. The most common short-term interest rate is the overnight rate, which is the rate at which banks can borrow or lend money overnight. Short-term rates can also be found in the form of Treasury bills, certificates of deposit, and commercial paper.

The short-term interest rate can be influenced by a variety of factors such as monetary policy, inflation expectations, and the overall health of the economy. Central banks use short-term interest rates as a tool to control the money supply and inflation in the economy. They can raise short-term interest rates to slow down inflation and lower them to stimulate growth.

  • It is used as a reference rate for derivatives: Many financial derivatives, such as interest rate swaps and futures, are based on LIBID, so changes in the rate can have a significant impact on the value of these instruments.
  • It indicates the health of the interbank market: LIBID reflects the cost of borrowing funds in the interbank market, so changes in the rate can provide insight into the overall health of the banking system and the level of liquidity in the market.
