Interest rates

Selecting Markets -> Interest Rates takes us to the homepage for interest rates, where we can observe selected data for the most important among them.

Using the section on the left side, we can also access detailed data about individual categories of instruments.

Sovereign bonds

To display data on the yields of government bonds, we select Government Debt. Current and some historical values are shown. To export a single table to Excel, select the option indicated on the right that appears by clicking the arrow. To export all tables from the page, there is a designated button available on the top-left side.

Clicking on the name of a particular interest rate opens a graph showing its historical movement. In the Graph Settings section, we can choose the maturity/maturities of the bonds that we want to plot. Clicking on the Yield Curve tab above allows us to view the yield curves for the selected instrument(s).

We can also plot the historical yield curve for any chosen date and selected instrument in the chart. Using the Excel button on the right side above the chart we can perform the export.

Major rates

We can access the table of important interest rates set by central banks of different countries from the Major Rates tab. The functions relating to graph plotting and data export work on the same principles as described above.
