Risk-Free Rate.


Limits on corporate tax relief for interest and amounts economically equivalent to interest.
The abbreviation 'RFR' usually refers to risk-free benchmark interest rates, such as SONIA.


Also known as ''near'' risk-free rates, recognising that such rates are never entirely risk-free.


Do not confuse with an interest ''rate'' cap, which is a hedging instrument to manage interest rate risk.
 
Theoretically risk free rates of ''investment'' return, for example in the Capital asset pricing model, are more often designated by 'Rf' or 'rf'.

Also known as near risk-free rates, recognising that such rates are never entirely risk-free.


Theoretically risk free rates of investment return, for example in the Capital asset pricing model, are more often designated by 'Rf' or 'rf'.
