SUMMARY

ESTR is published by the European Money Markets Institute and is a more robust and reliable alternative to EURIBOR

What is ESTR?

ESTR (Euro Short-Term Rate) is a new alternative reference rate for the Euro interbank lending market. It was introduced as a replacement for the current reference rate, the Euro Interbank Offered Rate (EURIBOR), which was phased out at the end of 2021.

How is ESTR calculated?

One of the key advantages of ESTR is its accuracy. It is based on actual transactions in the Euro interbank lending market, providing a more reliable reference rate compared to EURIBOR. Additionally, ESTR is calculated and published by the European Money Markets Institute (EMMI), a non-profit organization based in Europe, ensuring greater transparency and fairness in the market.
