As we approach the end of 2021, NYIC has assembled a panel to discuss important updates and market developments in connection with the end of LIBOR and the transition to new “risk-free rates” and “credit sensitive rates”. The panelists will also discuss developments on SOFR, including Term SOFR, and credit spread adjustments and the impact of statements from financial regulators regarding no new LIBOR exposure after 2021.
