Abstract
Disclosed herein are computer implemented systems and methods for electronic market calculation of an indicative term structure for an interest rate benchmark with market-based measures on a cloud communications network. The interest rate benchmark is based on Commercial Paper and Commercial Deposit issuances combine with unsecured overnight and 30-day lending data.
Claims3
A computer-implemented method for electronic market calculation of an indicative term structure for an interest rate benchmark with market-based measures on a cloud communications network, the method comprising:
- calculating, using a processor, a dollar basis point value of relevant transactions occurring in commercial paper, commercial deposit, and AMERIBOR unsecured lending markets,
- wherein the dollar basis point value is equal to a principal amount of a specific issuance multiplied by days to maturity, divided by 360, and multiplied by 0.01;
- wherein the relevant transactions are all commercial paper, commercial deposit, or AMERIBOR® unsecured lending transactions originated during a specified period of time by USA-based banks, financial institutions, or corporations with notional values of $1,000,000 or multiples thereof and fixed interest rates;
- storing, in a memory module, all relevant transactions and dollar basis point values previously calculated and updating them on a real-time basis;
- retrieving the transactions data and preceding dollar basis point value calculations from the memory module in real-time using a cloud-based application for subsequent calculation of a term structure interest rate for a predetermined time period;
- calculating, by means of the processor, a term structure interest rate composed of the interest rates of all relevant transactions (as defined above) weighted according to their transaction-level dollar basis point values for each specified period;
- determining, by means of an algorithm, whether or not underlying transaction volumes have reached a threshold for each relevant range;
- making adjustments when the threshold for each relevant range are not met by extending the specific period of time in which relevant transactions may be originated;
- and
- and sending securely a calculated benchmark rate data, on a daily basis at a specified time, via a cloud communications network to a plurality of target network devices to provide electronic information as an indication of how qualified institutions have agreed to participate in establishing, conducting business, and processing transactions based on the calculated benchmark rate.
