The Cynergy Bank sterling base rate is 2.75%.

Cessation of LIBOR – transition to the Bank of England Base Rate

As part of our preparation for the cessation of the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) at the end of 2021 the Bank is transitioning away from lending referenced on LIBOR to the Bank of England Base Rate.

Effective from Monday 9 November, all new unregulated lending will reference the Bank of England Base Rate.

The Bank of England Base Rate is currently 5.25%.

We believe that the Bank of England Base Rate is transparent, clear and easily understood by our customers.

Our relationship teams will shortly be in touch with customers who have facilities which run beyond 31 December 2021 and that are referenced on LIBOR to discuss your options going forward.

For customers who have facilities that are not linked to LIBOR or customers who have facilities with a term that ends prior to 31 December 2021, there is no change and you do not need to do anything.

Should you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact your relationship manager or alternatively you can email us at libortransition@cynergybank.co.uk.

Benchmark Transparency Statement

For the attention of clients of Cynergy Bank Limited

When you enter into a transaction, such as a loan agreement, lending facility or deposit with Cynergy Bank Limited (“ Cynergy Bank” or “Bank”), the payments and settlements due to or from you (and any subsequent valuation of the trasaction) may be determined by reference to the level of a Benchmark.

For Benchmarks regulated under the Regulation (EU) No. 2016/1011, the Bank acts in the capacity of User.

1. Benchmark User

Cynergy Bank is not an Administrator or a Contributor for any Benchmark used for products or transactions offered to its customers. Cynergy Bank is only a User of the Benchmark (i.e. LIBOR) that is administered by ICE Benchmark Administration Limited (“IBA”). IBA is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”) in the UK.

In practice, Cynergy Bank may reference the Benchmark for internal purposes or use the Benchmark on its own in products, services or transactions which we provide or carry out with you. The Benchmark may be used for the purpose of determining payments, settlements or deliveries due to or from you as a result of a loan agreement, lending facility, deposit, or in the valuation of any such loan, lending facility or deposit.

Where Cynergy Bank makes a regulated use of a Benchmark, in the event of a material change or cessation of that Benchmark by its Administrator, a suitable replacement or alternative Benchmark will be referenced to substitute the Benchmark no longer provided.

The FCA has indicated that banks will not be required to contribute to LIBOR after 2021. LIBOR may cease or materially change at that time. Contracts entered into with Cynergy Bank may contain provisions relating to fall-back rates to be applied in that event.

2. Interest rate Benchmark

Certain loans offered by the Bank are linked to LIBOR. LIBOR stands for the London Interbank Offered Rate and is a key benchmark rate of interest at which some the world’s leading banks offer to lend money to one another and serves as the reference rate for calculating interest rates on various loans including Cynergy Bank business loans.

LIBOR rates are calculated on a daily basis for borrowing periods ranging from overnight to one year and made public by the ICE LIBOR. Further information can be found at www.theice.com/iba/libor.

Cynergy Bank reviews and assesses its use of Benchmarks and the effectiveness of its controls and procedures. The Bank uses the three month British Pound Sterling LIBOR as its reference rate for business loans. This rate can fluctuate significantly over time as illustrated in the table below:

Source: http://global-rates.com/interest-rates/libor/british-pound-sterling/gbp-libor-interest-rate-3-months.aspx

Opening rate per year:

02 January 2018 0.51906%
03 January 2017 0.37025%
04 January 2016 0.59125%
02 January 2015 0.56338%
02 January 2014 0.52500%
02 January 2013 0.51500%
03 January 2012 1.08406%
04 January 2011 0.75750%
04 January 2010 0.60938%
02 January 2009 2.70500%
02 January 2008 5.89000%

Cynergy Bank will adjust the interest rate applied to a business loan based on the three month British Pound Sterling LIBOR rate at the end of each three month period. Dependent on the interest rate that date may mean either a decrease or an increase in the interest rate applied to a loan facility.

For example, the difference in interest costs of a 1% increase or decrease of three month British Pound Sterling LIBOR for a £1 million loan is £10,000 per annum.
