A Note about LIBOR Replacement:
PAS has been ahead of the market in developing functionality to support products based on new Alternative Risk Free Rates (RFRs) like SOFR, SONIA, ESTR and TONAR. This includes support for compounded averages, observational shifts, rate cutoffs and payment delays that are common features for products based on overnight rates. Additionally, PAS supports OIS discounting with the new RFRs and can build curves based on a number of market data sets such as : SOFR swap rates, SOFR v LIBOR basis, SOFR v Fed Funds basis, as well as spreads to US Treasuries.
