小编导读:在我们国内,存贷的利率都按央行规定的统一执行,而如果跨国之间,涉及到多币种时,我们应该用哪个国家的利率呢,这样就会出现很多的问题,为了解决这个问题,Libor(London Interbank Offered Rate ),即伦敦同业拆借利率就应运而生了。在FRM资格证考试中,LIBOR伦敦同业拆借利率是指伦敦的*9流银行之间短期资金借贷的利率,是国际金融市场中大多数浮动利率的基础利率。现在来说,LIBOR是最广泛应用的基准利率。
  我们来熟悉一下概念:
  Which of the following explanations incorrectly accounts for differences between LIBOR and the effective federal funds rate? (   )
  A.      The manner in which the rates are determined.
  B.       The composition of the pool of borrowers in London vs New York.
  C.       Differences between dominate settlement mechanisms in New York and London.
  D.      LIBOR is a rate on secured loans, whereas the overnight indexed swap rate applies to unsecured loans.
  正确的答案是D, 因为LIBRO和OIS 都适用于无抵押借贷
