3-mth euro, dlr, stg Libor rates at new all-time lows
LONDON, July 6 (Reuters) - The interbank cost of borrowing dollars, euros and sterling hit the latest in a series of all-time lows on Monday, according to the latest daily fixing from the British Bankers' Association.
The spreads of three-month London interbank offered rates over OIS rates for all three currencies tightened, according to Reuters data.
The spread expresses the three-month premium paid over anticipated central bank rates, or Overnight Index Swap rates and is seen as a gauge of banks' willingness to lend to each other -- a wider spread is seen as an indication of decreased inclination to lend.
Below is a table of the London interbank offered rates (Libor) for dollar, euro and sterling funds in percentage terms, with the change from the previous session in parentheses.
