The training covered all the necessary details including the background to the change, the key actions we will need to take, and how to calculate interest on a Compounded SONIA loan.The presentation was thoroughly researched and from his extensive knowledge Adrian was able to answer all our questions. It was a very worthwhile session and we would certainly recommend him.”

SONIA 2021

SONIA transition is coming and implementation now needs to be prioritised.  Even if you only have one LIBOR loan you will be affected by this change. 


SONIA will replace LIBOR as the main reference rate for loans by the end of 2021.  SONIA was chosen because it truly reflects real market interest rates but it is calculated compounded daily in arrears to more accurately reflect the time value of money.   We will all have to start getting used to calculating daily compounded-in-arrears interest.  


The final deadline of 31 December 2021 is now confirmed and the Bank of England and the Financial Conduct Authority are encouraging everyone to start the transition sooner rather than later.   2TIX LTD has been closely tracking the progress of SONIA transition and can support your organisation understand the complexities and help you implement this change.

COMPOUNDED SONIA PORTFOLIO CALCULATOR

SONIA is published by the Bank of England every day but daily-compounding-in-arrears is quite tricky without access to a special calculator.  Abovo-Consult and 2TIX LTD have developed a unique Loan Portfolio Calculator for accrued Interest.

TRAINING

The transition to SONIA is going to absorb valuable time. We offer a variety of training services to help make your life easier:

  • Your treasury team is going to need technical training on how SONIA works, the calculation of accrued interest on a Compounded in arrears basis and the ISDA Protocol. They will need to be able to work out the Adjustment spread, the new daily Compounded SONIA Index and new processes and timescales for checking and calculating loan interest depending on the observational shift / Lag. 
  • Your Board and executive team will be interested to learn about this new interest rate and will look for reassurance that this is primarily a process change rather than a new risk. They are also going to need to understand the transition process and the part they will play in signing off the change. 

In addition to training we can offer support in many ways including telephone support for ad-hoc queries. For formal settings we offer a video meeting (or Board attendance when possible). We can provide you with ready-made Board papers / committee papers explaining the issues and the necessary paperwork. If you prefer to present this change to your Board yourself we can offer a pack of ready-made slides.
