''European Union - Brexit.''


1.  
No Deal would have been the most extreme form of a Hard Brexit.


A quoting convention under which interest at the quoted rate is calculated and added to the principal annually.  
Under No Deal, the UK would have left the European Union (EU) without a negotiated settlement.


EAR is the most usual conventional quotation basis for instruments with maturities of greater than one year.


On 24 December 2020 the UK and European Commission agreed the terms of a post-Brexit free trade agreement due to come into provisional application from 1 January 2021.


2.


A conventional measure which expresses the returns on different instruments on a comparable basis.

* [[Article 50]]
The EAR basis of comparison is the ''equivalent'' rate of interest paid and compounded annually, which would give the same all-in rate of return as the instrument under review.

For this reason, 'EAR' is sometimes expressed as <u>equivalent</u> annual rate.

''Where:''
 
r = periodic interest rate or yield
 
R = nominal annual rate
 
n = number of times the period fits into a conventional year (for example, 360 or 365 days)
 
 
 
EAR = (1 + r)<sup>n</sup> - 1

==Calculating EAR from GBP overnight quote==
 
<span style="color:#4B0082">'''Example 1: EAR from overnight quote'''</span>
 
GBP overnight interest is conventionally quoted on a simple interest basis for a 365-day year.
 
So GBP overnight interest quoted at R = 5.11% means:
 
(i)


Interest of:


r = R / n

[https://www.treasurers.org/hub/technical/brexit Brexit - ACT Resources]


r = 5.11% / 365
[[Category:Accounting,_tax_and_regulation]]
 
[[Category:The_business_context]]
r = 0.014% (= 0.00014) is paid per day.
 
 
(ii)
 
The ''equivalent'' effective annual rate is calculated from (1 + r).
 
1 + r = 1 + 0.00014 = 1.00014
 
 
EAR = (1 + r)<sup>n</sup> - 1
 
EAR = 1.00014<sup>365</sup> - 1
 
EAR = '''5.2424%'''.
 
 
==EAR from semi-annual quote==
 
We can calculate EAR from a semi-annual (half-year) quote.
 
 
<span style="color:#4B0082">'''Example 2: EAR from semi-annual quote'''</span>
 
GBP semi-annual interest is conventionally quoted on a simple interest basis for half-years, using half-years to calculate interest for each period of six months, rather than an exact daycount.
 
So GBP semi-annual interest quoted at R = 5.00% means:
 
(i)
 
Interest of:
 
r = R / n
 
r = 5.00 / 2
 
r = 2.50% is paid per six months.
 
 
(ii)
 
The ''equivalent'' effective annual rate is:
 
 
EAR = (1 + r)<sup>n</sup> - 1
 
EAR = 1.025<sup>2</sup> - 1
 
EAR = '''5.0625%'''.
 
 
==EAR from USD overnight quote==
 
We can calculate EAR using USD overnight quote which has a 360-day year.
 
 
<span style="color:#4B0082">'''Example 3: EAR from USD overnight quote'''</span>
 
USD overnight interest is conventionally quoted on a simple interest basis for a 360-day year.
 
So USD overnight interest quoted at R = 5.04% means:
 
(i)
 
Interest of:
 
r = R / n
 
r = 5.04% / 360
 
r = 0.014% is paid per day.
 
 
(ii)
 
The ''equivalent'' effective annual rate is:
 
 
EAR = (1 + r)<sup>n</sup> - 1
 
EAR = 1.00014<sup>365</sup> - 1
 
EAR = '''5.2424%'''.

European Union - Brexit.

No Deal would have been the most extreme form of a Hard Brexit.

Under No Deal, the UK would have left the European Union (EU) without a negotiated settlement.
