Remaining synthetic US dollar LIBOR settings – less than 1 month to go

It is now less than 1 month to go until the 1-, 3- and 6-month synthetic US dollar LIBOR settings cease permanently after their final publication on Monday 30 September 2024.

Further to our June 2024 decision (PDF), we have required ICE Benchmark Administration Limited (IBA) to continue to publish the 1-, 3- and 6-month US dollar LIBOR settings in synthetic form until the end of September 2024. We will not use our powers to compel IBA to continue to publish the settings beyond this date.

Ahead of the deadline, firms with outstanding US dollar LIBOR exposures must continue their active transition efforts.

The cessation of the last remaining LIBOR settings is the final milestone in the transition away from LIBOR and will mark the end of LIBOR overall.
