Episode description

The London Interbank Offered Rate -- aka LIBOR -- is the most widely-used benchmark for short-term interest rates in the world. So if LIBOR is so popular, then why is it going away? And what's replacing it? Ming Min Lee, a principal with Oliver Wyman, has the answers. 

After you listen, check out AFP's LIBOR transition plan for a rundown of the issue, plus key actions you can take now.
