13 Floating rate note mechanics 13

14 Floating rate mechanics 14 What is JIBAR? Johannesburg interbank agreed rate (JIBAR) is the average interest rate at which banks buy and sell money. It is a floating rate and is quoted in 1, 3, 6 and 12 month terms. The rate is calculated daily by SAFEX and can be viewed on Reuters What is a floating rate note? The interest on a floating rate note, as opposed to interest on a conventional fixed rate note is linked to a prevailing interest rate (or the reference rate, 3-month Jibar in the case of this offer) Therefore, at reset dates (quarterly in the case of this offer), the interest rate that will apply over the next interest period is determined The note should trade at par on reset dates and close to par between reset dates; and therefore The interest risk (sensitivity to changes in interest rates) of a floating rate note is relatively small (compared to other fixed rate instruments) Interest rate for a period is determined from reference rate level at reset date i.e. at start date in this case Interest is received on principal at each reset date value of note at each reset date should pull to par Start date Interest Interest Interest Interest + principal Interest period Interest period Interest period Interest period set reset reset reset Full term or maturity of deposit
