Abstract: This paper illustrates the state of play of the interest rate benchmark reform process. Overnight rates that can be considered risk-free, such as the €STR in the euro area, have been introduced in the main currency areas. The production of rates with a maturity of more than one day, which can replace traditional benchmarks, will depend on the availability of money market data and the different indexing needs. It is reasonable to expect that several types of benchmarks will coexist in the future; this could also entail a risk of market liquidity fragmentation.
