In addition to the rates associated with products such as checking accounts or investment funds, central banks set official <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.urbanitae.com\/en\/2024\/07\/26\/interest-rates-what-you-need-to-know\/?utm_source=blog_en&amp;utm_medium=organic&amp;utm_campaign=urbanitae_blog_1024&amp;utm_term=interest_rates_1&amp;utm_content=en_tipos_interes_referencia\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">interest rates<\/a>. Moreover, there are other indicators, the <strong>benchmark rates<\/strong>, that help central banks do their job: defining monetary policy. In this article, we will explain what they are and how they work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>First of all, it&#8217;s essential to remember the basics of interest rates. They are nothing more than the price we pay to borrow money, or the money paid to us when we lend it. Most of us start learning about interest rates when we open a bank account \u2013 to know the return on a deposit, for example \u2013 or when we take out a loan \u2013 like a mortgage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this context, it\u2019s crucial to understand what rates we are being told about. For instance, a mortgage may have an <strong>interest rate<\/strong> of 1.8%, but an <strong>annual percentage rate (APR)<\/strong> of 2%. The second figure is more important to keep in mind because it represents the total cost of the loan expressed as an annual percentage. That is, the APR takes into account the fees and <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.urbanitae.com\/en\/2024\/06\/01\/costs-and-fees-the-enemies-of-profitability\/?utm_source=blog_en&amp;utm_medium=organic&amp;utm_campaign=urbanitae_blog_1024&amp;utm_term=charges&amp;utm_content=en_tipos_interes_referencia\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">charges<\/a> associated with the loan or credit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another basic distinction is between the <strong>nominal interest rate (NIR)<\/strong> and the <strong>real interest rate.<\/strong> The NIR represents the percentage on the capital that must be paid over a specified period. It\u2019s a useful indicator, but it doesn\u2019t tell the whole story since it doesn\u2019t account for inflation. This is why we also talk about real interest rates. Let\u2019s look at an example: if an asset offers an annual NIR of 5% and inflation is 4%, then the real interest rate is only 1%. That would be the asset&#8217;s real return.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Official interest rates<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Beyond all these considerations, there are other interest rates, the instruments central banks use to define the monetary policy of a country or a group of countries that share a currency, like the eurozone. In our closest example, the European Central Bank (ECB) sets official interest rates and, in doing so, establishes monetary policy in the 20 European Union countries that use the euro.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Central banks like the ECB are not ordinary banks. Rather, <strong>they are the rates that commercial banks use to finance themselves or deposit liquidity<\/strong> \u2013 the so-called banking reserves. This is where official interest rates come into play, as they set the conditions under which ordinary banks interact with the central bank and, by extension, influence how banks interact with each other and the rest of the economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here, we refer to the <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.urbanitae.com\/en\/2024\/01\/26\/how-do-interest-rates-affect-your-investments\/?utm_source=blog_en&amp;utm_medium=organic&amp;utm_campaign=urbanitae_blog_1024&amp;utm_term=interest_rate&amp;utm_content=en_tipos_interes_referencia\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">interest rate<\/a> on main refinancing operations \u2013 which determines the cost of financing for commercial banks over a week with the ECB \u2013 the deposit facility rate \u2013 the price the ECB pays for the deposits of commercial banks \u2013 and the marginal lending facility rate \u2013 the rate the ECB charges banks for overnight loans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Benchmark rates<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>So, what are benchmark rates? These are reference indices used in all types of financial contracts, such as mortgage loans. If you have a variable-rate mortgage, you are probably very familiar with one of the main benchmark rates: the Euribor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As explained by the Bank of Spain, &#8220;the most common benchmark <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bde.es\/wbe\/en\/areas-actuacion\/politica-monetaria\/preguntas-frecuentes\/papel-tipos-interes\/que-son-los-tipos-de-interes-de-referencia.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">rates<\/a> are the so-called interbank market rates, such as the Euribor or the \u20acSTR (which recently replaced the EONIA), i.e., the interest rates at which banks and other financial intermediaries lend to each other. This information helps central banks understand the state of monetary policy transmission to the interbank market.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Euro Short-Term Rate (\u20acSTR)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The \u20acSTR (Euro Short-Term Rate) is a benchmark index that <strong>reflects the cost of money in euros over the short term in the interbank market.<\/strong> Introduced by the ECB in October 2019, the \u20acSTR is calculated based on unsecured loan transactions between banks. Its goal is to provide a more accurate and representative reference for short-term interest rates than its predecessor, the EONIA (Euro Overnight Index Average), which was discontinued in 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The \u20acSTR is used as a base for various financial products \u2013 such as loans, mortgages, and derivatives \u2013 and thus affects businesses, financial institutions, and investors. Moreover, it is considered a key benchmark for determining the cost of borrowing in euros, which directly influences the financial planning of many economic actors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For investors, the \u20acSTR is a crucial indicator, as it reflects liquidity conditions and risk in the eurozone. It is also relevant for real estate investment, as changes in this index can affect financing costs for developers and buyers, as well as the profitability of products related to debt or real estate loans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Euribor<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.emmi-benchmarks.eu\/benchmarks\/euribor\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Euribor<\/a> (Euro Interbank Offered Rate) is the <strong>average interest rate at which major banks in the eurozone lend money to each other over the short term.<\/strong> It is calculated daily based on quotes provided by a panel of top-tier banks and serves as a key reference index for loans, mortgages, and financial products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Introduced in 1999, the Euribor is a fundamental reference in the mortgage market of the eurozone, as many variable-rate mortgages are linked to this index. When the Euribor rises, mortgage payments usually increase, and when it falls, they tend to decrease, making it a crucial indicator for consumers and the real estate sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the realm of <a href=\"https:\/\/urbanitae.com\/en\/?utm_source=blog_en&amp;utm_medium=organic&amp;utm_campaign=urbanitae_blog_1024&amp;utm_term=real_estate_investment&amp;utm_content=en_tipos_interes_referencia\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">real estate investment<\/a>, <strong>the Euribor influences the cost of financing for developers and buyers.<\/strong> It also directly impacts the profitability of certain financial products tied to the real estate sector, such as loans or bonds. For investors, monitoring the Euribor is essential, as it reflects liquidity conditions and the level of confidence among banks in the eurozone, which can foreshadow changes in the cost of credit and the overall economic environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In summary, reference interest rates, such as the Euribor and \u20acSTR, are key indicators that reflect the economic and financial conditions in the eurozone. They are essential for consumers, businesses, and investors alike, as they directly influence the cost of loans and the profitability of financial products. Understanding how they work is useful for making informed investment decisions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We&#8217;ve all heard about the Euribor, but why are reference interest rates so important for the economy?
