Summary:

Provides answers to several frequently asked questions regarding the London interbank offer rate (LIBOR), which is an index representing prevailing interest rates in London money markets. Discusses how LIBOR is calculated, which banks serve on the dollar LIBOR panel, whether LIBOR is unique, how LIBOR is used in the U.S. financial system, and alternatives to LIBOR. Addresses whether a single reporting bank can manipulate a LIBOR index, examines how Barclays manipulated LIBOR in its admissions, and considers whether U.S. policymakers were aware of problems with LIBOR.
