Swap Rate
(redirected from Swap Rates)

   Also found in: Wikipedia 0.06 sec.
Swap Rate
The rate of the fixed portion of a swap as determined by its particular market. This is the rate at which the swap will occur for one of the parties entering into the agreement.

Notes:
These rates are quoted by the market and will be almost identical to the rate used for the swaps, minus any premiums added.

For example: 1) The interest rate associated with the fixed portion of an interest rate swap.

2) The exchange rate associated with the fixed portion of a currency swap.


Swap rate
The difference between spot and forward rates expressed in points, e.g., $0.0001 per pound sterling.
