Refinitiv USD IBOR Cash Fallbacks

The Refinitiv USD IBOR Cash Fallbacks are a family of rates that support participants of the markets migrate away from USD LIBOR. They seek to be commercially substantially equivalent to USD LIBOR by capturing both a risk-free rate, which is measured by different forms of Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR), plus a fixed spread adjustment that measures the average difference between USD LIBOR and SOFR.
