Calculating the Loan Fee Rate
The Loan Fee Rate is calculated by subtracting the Benchmark Rate from Fees, where Fees are defined as the sum of the Advisor Fee, Platform Fee, and Spread.
The Benchmark Rate is updated daily at the Withdrawal Cut-Off Time based on the Daily Treasury Bill Rates published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. This means the Loan Fee Rate will change in line with any fluctuations in the Benchmark Rate.

Calculating the Daily Interest Rate
The Loan Fee Rate is transformed into a Daily Interest Rate each day by taking 1 day of the Loan Fee Rate, compounded daily
Example
Where the Loan Fee Rate = 0.0475 (4.75% APR),
This daily interest rate is added to the prior days exchange rate to calculate the exchange rate for the next day.
