FAQs
What is compounded SARON?
Compounded SARON is a backward-looking realised interest rate calculated by compounding the daily Swiss Average Rate Overnight (SARON) over a defined period, such as 1, 3, or 6 months. It represents the actual interest accrued on a Swiss Franc (CHF) investment over that historical window.
What is the difference between compounded SARON and CHF LIBOR?
Forward vs. Backward: CHF LIBOR was a forward-looking term rate (an estimate of future borrowing costs). Compounded SARON is a backward-looking rate based on realised overnight activity.
Is there a "Term SARON" like Term SOFR?
Unlike the US market which has "Term SOFR" (a forward-looking rate based on futures), the Swiss market primarily relies on Compounded SARON for longer-term contracts. While "SARON Compound Rates" are published for specific tenors (1M, 3M, etc.), these are backward-looking averages, not forward-looking forecasts.
What is the day count convention for SARON?
Compounded SARON is calculated using the Actual/360 day count convention, which is the standard for the Swiss Franc money market.
