Libor—the London interbank offered rate

Libor—the London interbank offered rate



He had no idea it would star in one of history’s greatest financial scandals.

For all its shortcomings, Libor is still a fixture of the global financial system. After the scandal, regulators talked about scrapping the benchmark and replacing it with one based on actual trades rather than what banks say their borrowing costs are. But that proved impossible, because the number was baked into so many contracts lasting many years. In 2014 the BBA was stripped of its role overseeing Libor and replaced by Intercontinental Exchange, a U.S. derivatives-trading platform. These days, Libor is based in part on actual transactions, but it still involves guesswork. Prompted by their success with Libor, authorities around the world undertook similar investigations into benchmarks for foreign exchange, precious metals, and commodities, unearthing widespread manipulation across markets and sparking billions of dollars more in fines.
