SUMMARY

SARON: the key reference rate for overnight lending in Switzerland

SARON (Swiss Average Rate Overnight) is a new reference rate for the Swiss franc overnight market. It is designed to replace the current reference rate, the Swiss Interbank Offered Rate (CHF LIBOR), which was phased out on the 31st Dec 2021.

SARON is based on transactions and quotes posted in the Swiss repo market and was first cleared in October 2017, with SARON futures available since October 2018.

Unlike CHF LIBOR, SARON is calculated and published on a daily basis, providing more frequent and up-to-date information. Additionally, SARON is based on a larger and more diverse pool of data than traditional reference rates, providing greater transparency and stability.
