Introduced in 2011, RONIA is the weighted average rate to four decimal places of all sterling overnight borrowing/deposit transactions secured against collateral of [[gilts]] brokered in London by contributing European Venues and Intermediaries Association (EVIA) member firms between 00.00 hrs and 16.15 hrs UK time with all counterparties, with no minimum deal size. (Security is taken in the form of sale and [[repurchase agreement]]s - REPOs.)
Monetary policy is central government or other policy to stimulate or otherwise influence economic activity by influencing money supply or interest rates.  


The index is a weighted average overnight deposit rate for each business day. Each rate in the average is weighted by the principal amount of deposits which were taken on that day.
Historically, mechanisms for influencing the money supply have included the use of open market operations, the central bank discount rate and reserve requirements.


RONIA is published by the WMBA Ltd (part of European Venues and Intermediaries Association) in London.
