Dollar, euro 3-mth Libor set new record, spreads tighten

LONDON, July 28 (Reuters) - The interbank cost of borrowing three-month dollars, euros and sterling extended their decline to fresh record lows on Tuesday, according to the latest daily fixingfrom the British Bankers' Association.
The spreads of three-month London interbank offered rates over OIS rates for all three currencies tightened. The spread expresses the three-month premium paid over anticipated central bank rates, or Overnight Index Swap rates and is seen as a gauge of banks' willingness to lend to each other -- a wider spread is seen as an indication of decreased inclination to lend. Below is a table of the London interbank offered rates (Libor) for dollar, euro and sterling funds in percentage terms, with the change from the previous session in parentheses.
