  • SWAP and LIBOR

    To calculate current interest rates, PostFinance uses the LIBOR and swap rates. The 3-month LIBOR and 3, 5 and 8-year swap rates are shown as reference interest rates.

    Following a slight increase in 2008, mortgage interest rates began to fall to historically low rates of below 3.0% at the start of 2009 as a result of the market environment. From mid-2008 to the end of 2014, interest rates were subject to significant fluctuations, falling sharply over the long term. At the start of 2015, they bottomed out, and have remained at a low level ever since.

    SWAP: An interest rate swap entails the Exchange of a fixed-interest rate and a varibale-interest rate between two parties. A financial institution often acts as an intermediary between the two parties.

    LIBOR: The London Interbank Offered Rate is the money market rate at which a bank lends money to another first-class bank for up to one year.
