THB Overnight Repurchase Rate (THOR) is a widely used benchmark for overnight money market interest rates in Thailand. As a financial reference rate, THOR provides a reliable and transparent alternative to traditional benchmark rates such as LIBOR.
THOR is calculated daily by the Bank of Thailand and is based on actual market transactions. The rate has been developed to replace the THBFIX rate. It is designed to reflect the average overnight money market interest rate in Thailand and is used by financial services professionals to price a variety of financial products and instruments.
As a rate that is based on actual market transactions, it provides greater transparency and reduces the risk of rate manipulation. This in turn helps to ensure the stability and reliability of the financial markets in Thailand
THOR offers a number of unique features that make it a valuable tool for financial services professionals. These features include:
Pricing financial products and instruments
Determining interest rates for loans and mortgages
Calculating returns on investment portfolios
Evaluating the performance of financial investments
Hedging against interest rate risk
The data is available directly from us, as well as on Bloomberg and Refinitiv under the firm’s Global and Risk Free Rates packages.
