Below market fixed rate loan - discounted using LIBOR at initial recognition as the market interest rate

Post by synnt »

Hi, I have a below market fixed rate loan that I have fair valued during initial recognition previously.
But we have used LIBOR to determine the market interest rate. Would like to know if this is impacted by the IBOR reform since I have no change in contractual cash flows?

If it is, how do we adjust the effective interest rate?

What rate are you moving over to using from LIBOR?

My loan is still fixed rate and there won't be any new loan agreement.

In that case, there should not ben any issue right? The loan was fair value at origination, and what happens after that will not matter, or? Love to hear if there is some other views? :)
