Consultation Paper: proposed changes to Euribor methodology
EMMI's commitment to maintaining the integrity and reliability of the Euribor benchmark has led to a comprehensive review of its methodology. The proposed changes are designed to address specific aspects of the benchmark while preserving its core characteristics. The consultation paper outlines EMMI's efforts to further enhance Euribor’s methodology and invites feedback from market participants, interested parties and stakeholders at large.
The key elements under consideration are:
1. Reformulation of Level 2.3
2. Discontinuation of Level 3

The euro money market reference rate
Euribor®
Euribor® is the unsecured money market reference rate for the euro. The benchmark was declared a critical benchmark by the European Commission in 2016 because of its systemic importance for financial stability
The euro forward-looking term rate
Efterm®
Efterm® is a forward-looking €STR-based term rate. It is designed as a fallback rate to Euribor®
To protect their integrity and reliability, Euribor® and Efterm® benefit from:
- A solid Governance Framework establishing the requirements and principles related to their provision and setting out effective control arrangements to ensure their integrity and reliability in all market circumstances
- An independent Oversight Committee of market experts. They follow markets developments and exercise an unbiased oversight of all aspects related to the provision of the benchmarks, including their Governance Framework and methodology
