Alternative Reference Rates Committee
US interest rate benchmarks.
(ARRC).
"The Alternative Reference Rates Committee is a group of private-market participants convened by the Federal Reserve Board and the New York Fed to help ensure a successful transition from US dollar (USD) LIBOR to a more robust reference rate, its recommended alternative, the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR).
The ARRC is comprised of a diverse set of private-sector entities that have an important presence in markets affected by USD LIBOR and a wide array of official-sector entities, including banking and financial sector regulators, as ex-officio members."

The ARRC works with industry participants for an orderly transition to SOFR from USD LIBOR.
It also serves as a forum to coordinate and track planning across cash and derivatives products and market participants currently using USD LIBOR.
