Navigating the LIBOR/SOFR Transition for U.S. Corporates

We are now 15 months away (as of September 2020) from the date when LIBOR will officially be history and going forward we will be using its substitute benchmark SOFR in the United States. While some corporations have been preparing for this transition for months or possibly years, others are just starting the process.

In this webinar, Bloomberg corporate treasury specialist Yon Valtchev will review this historic transition from a corporate perspective. We will discuss:
  • The immediate impact on derivatives and securities referencing LIBOR
  • How the valuation and risk of USD listed securities will change past Oct 16th
  • Lessons learn from the discounting transition from Eonia to Ester in the UK this past July
  • Valuations and if they were materially different after the transition as well as discuss if there were any compensation mechanisms
