Line 1: Line 1:
In theory there is an Interbank rate in Kuwait, sometimes known as KIBOR.
The purchase and cancellation of outstanding securities through a cash payment to the holder.


However, KIBOR is an irrelevance for most corporate treasury activities.
More specifically, the paying off or buying back of a debt security by the issuer on or before its stated maturity date.  The redemption can be made at par value or at a premium, as is the custom when exercising a call option.

All KWD bank debt is priced as a spread over the Central Bank Discount Rate ("CBK"), which is changed by unilateral decision of the central bank.

CBK-based debt reprices immediately when the rate is changed, unlike other benchmark interest rates which only reprice at the end of the agreed fixing drawdown period.

Kuwait Inter Bank Offer Rate should not be confused with Karachi IBOR or Kiev IBOR, which are also sometimes known as KIBOR.
