                 Table 1

                 Libor and Euribor are not single rates rather they provide variants of these benchmark rates
                 which were published each day. The rates were published for five currencies and seven
                 maturities for each currency (see Table 2). In 1986, the Libor initially fixed rates for three
                 currencies. These were the US dollar, British pound sterling and the Deutsche Mark. Over time
                 this grew to sixteen currencies. After a number of these currencies in 2000 merged into the
                 euro there remained ten currencies. Following reforms of 2013 Libor rates were calculated for 5
                 currencies.
