Interest Rate Tables

Access interest rate, indexation, and stock index tables used in financial, fiscal, and legal environments.

Margill tables support the calculation of interest, returns and present values in environments subject to local and international regulations. 

They are used within the Margill Loan Manager and in the Margill Calculator, notably the Law Editionfor interest calculation, amount indexing, return analysis, and various compliance functions.

Why Use Interest Rate Tables?

Financial calculations often rely on external reference data. When these references are incomplete or outdated, discrepancies quickly affect schedules, returns, and reporting.

In regulated environments, inaccurate rates may lead to accounting corrections, contractual adjustments, or legal disputes.

The Tables allow you to work with data published by organizations such as:

  • Central Banks:
    • US Federal Reserve
    • Bank of England
    • Bank of Canada
    • Reserve Bank of Australia
    • Reserve Bank of South Africa
    • European Central Bank
  • Ministries and Departments of Justice:
    • United States (federal) –  all states
    • Canada – all provinces and territories
    • Europe: United Kingdom, France, Belgium, Luxembourg 
  • Tax agencies: 
    • Internal Revenue Service (IRS)
    • Canada Revenue Agency (CRA)
    • Australian Taxation Office

The tables ensure consistency between cases and facilitate internal checks when using tools such as the Margill Interest Calculator or the Margill Legal Interest Calculator.
