The Euro Interbank Offered Rate (Euribor) is a daily reference rate, published by the European Money Markets Institute, [1] based on the averaged interest rates at which Eurozone banks borrow unsecured funds from counterparties in the euro wholesale money market (before only in the interbank market).
Given: 0.5-year spot rate, Z1 = 4%, and 1-year spot rate, Z2 = 4.3% (we can get these rates from T-Bills which are zero-coupon); and the par rate on a 1.5-year semi-annual coupon bond, R3 = 4.5%. We then use these rates to calculate the 1.5 year spot rate. We solve the 1.5 year spot rate, Z3, by the formula below:
Course of EONIA 1999–2009. Eonia (Euro Overnight Index Average) was computed as a weighted average of all overnight unsecured lending transactions in the interbank market, undertaken in the European Union and European Free Trade Association (EFTA) countries by a Panel of banks (the same as for Euribor) subject to the Eonia Code of Conduct.

The interest rate on the security or loan-type agreement, e.g., 5.25%. In the formulas this would be expressed as 0.0525. Date1 (Y1.M1.D1) Starting date for the accrual. It is usually the coupon payment date preceding Date2. Date2 (Y2.M2.D2) Date through which interest is being accrued. You could word this as the "to" date, with Date1 as the ...
The forward rate is the future yield on a bond. It is calculated using the yield curve . For example, the yield on a three-month Treasury bill six months from now is a forward rate .
