Current Base Rate October 2025

Since the beginning of the year yields on quasi-risk-free Bundesbank bonds are rising.

This month, the base rate according to the IDW recommendation reached 3.25% (rounded to ¼ percentage points).

The IDW FAUB has responded to this development and adjusted the recommended range for the market risk premium with effect from September 22, 2025.

The base rate has been calculated based on yield curve data (Svensson method) as provided by Deutsche Bundesbank.
