FAQs
The 5 year JIBAR swap rate is the annual fixed interest rate that market participants exchange for 3-month JIBAR over the next 5 years. It is set in the interdealer swap market and moves continuously with expectations for South African Reserve Bank policy.
The rate shown on this page is the previous South African business day's close; the live rate is available in the BlueGamma app.
Three common reasons:
- Timing: this page shows the previous South African business day's mid-market close, while banks quote off the live curve, which moves through the day.
- Spread: the mid-market rate is the raw interbank level. A bank's quote adds a credit and execution charge, and on a loan a lending margin on top.
- Conventions: a quote using a different payment frequency or day count will differ slightly from the annual/annual rate shown here.
If you are comparing a quote against the market, compare it with the live mid rate at the time of the quote.
Lenders fund fixed-rate commercial and real-estate loans by hedging with interest rate swaps of the matching term, so a 5 year fixed quote is priced off the 5 year JIBAR swap rate plus a lending margin.
Borrowers on floating JIBAR loans watch the same rate: it is the market level at which their bank will fix the debt, before the bank's spread.
This page shows the last 12 months of daily closes, the 52-week range and dated lookbacks.
