In the six months Libor has left, thousands of Main Street borrowers face a critically important choice: what rate to use in place of the outgoing benchmark?
As things stand, most borrowers are aware of the need to transition. Many have a preference for a replacement that is based upon the secured overnight financing rate, or SOFR – the officially endorsed successor to US dollar Libor – rather than one of the credit-sensitive alternatives that could see the cost of borrowing climb at times of stress. But the majority have not yet been approached by their banks to discuss the available options in detail, or to thrash out transition plans.
