APOR History Explorer
Pick a rate-lock date and a loan term and this page returns the Average Prime Offer Rate that applied. Every figure comes from the weekly APOR tables published on the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council’s (FFIEC) HMDA platform, January 2, 2017 to October 26, 2026. Nothing you enter leaves your browser.
What is APOR?
The Average Prime Offer Rate (APOR) is an annual percentage rate derived from average terms offered to borrowers who qualify for prime pricing. Regulation C, at 12 CFR 1003.4(a)(12)(ii), says the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) publishes the APOR tables at least weekly, along with the methodology it uses to derive them. The CFPB posts them on the FFIEC’s HMDA platform as the two files its Rate Spread Calculator reads, and today’s table below is read straight from those files. A loan’s HMDA rate spread is its APR minus the APOR for a comparable transaction as of the date the interest rate was set.
APR vs APOR: what is the difference?
APR is the annual percentage rate of one specific loan: the cost of that borrower’s credit, as disclosed under Regulation Z. APOR is a market benchmark, an APR the CFPB derives each week from rates offered to borrowers who qualify for prime pricing, published by loan type and term. Subtract the APOR from a loan’s APR and you have its rate spread.
That one subtraction feeds two rules. HMDA reports it as the rate spread under 12 CFR 1003.4(a)(12), positive or negative, for covered loans subject to Regulation Z, with a few exceptions; our rate spread calculator does the arithmetic. Regulation Z uses the same gap in 12 CFR 1026.35(a)(1) to decide whether a loan is a higher-priced mortgage loan, at 1.5 points or more on most first liens. Our HPML checker runs that test on one loan.
Current APOR: week of October 26, 2026
The CFPB posts each week’s APOR table on the FFIEC’s HMDA platform on the Thursday before it takes effect, according to the FFIEC calculator’s data requirements. This week’s APOR applies to loans whose rate was set on or after Monday, October 26, 2026, until the next weekly table takes effect. Fixed rates are indexed by loan term; adjustable rates by years to the first rate adjustment.
| Years | 3 | 5 | 7 | 10 | 15 | 20 | 30 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Fixed | 6.37% | 6.66% | 6.47% | 7.02% | 6.83% | 7.12% | 7.35% |
| Adjustable | 6.57% | 6.62% | 6.57% | 6.65% | 6.65% | 6.65% | 6.65% |

How APOR is set and published
The Average Prime Offer Rate is an annual percentage rate derived from average terms offered to borrowers who qualify for prime pricing. The CFPB calculates it and publishes it on the FFIEC’s HMDA platform as two tables, one for fixed-rate transactions and one for adjustable, and updates both weekly. Every week in the current files is exactly seven days after the one before it, with no gaps across the whole series.
Those two files are the authority, not a summary of it: they are what the FFIEC’s own Rate Spread Calculator reads. This page reproduces both of them in full rather than sampling them.
The CFPB documents the calculation in two parts, split at 24 April 2023: a current methodology and a previous methodology for APORs calculated before that date. Both are linked here rather than paraphrased, because which one applied to a given week decides how the figure was built.
Which week applies to your lock date
The rate spread compares your APR to the APOR for a comparable transaction as of the date the interest rate was set: the rate-lock date, or if there was no lock, the date the rate was set on the note. Because the tables are weekly, the figure that applies is the most recently published week on or before that date, which is what the lookup above returns and what it names in its answer.
That also means a lock on a Friday and a lock on the following Sunday use the same APOR, and a lock on the Monday after does not. The lookup shows the effective week alongside the rate so the distinction is visible rather than assumed.
One boundary worth knowing: the FFIEC states that its calculator “provides rate spreads for HMDA reportable loans with a final action date on or after January 1st, 2018”. The published tables start earlier, on January 2, 2017, because a loan with a 2018 action date can have a 2017 lock date. For anything before that, the FFIEC’s archived calculator for the period is the right tool, and this page will tell you it has no figure rather than extrapolate one.
What each table is indexed by, and why it matters
The two files do not count the same thing, and the column headers say so. The fixed table’s columns are headed “Term of Loan in Years”. The adjustable table’s columns are headed “Years to First Adjustment”.
So a 30-year fixed mortgage is compared against column 30 of the fixed table, while a 5/1 ARM amortizing over 30 years is compared against column 5 of the adjustable table, not column 30. Reading the ARM table as though it were indexed by loan term is a quiet way to produce a wrong rate spread on every adjustable loan in a file, and it is not the kind of error an edit check catches, because the number that results is a perfectly valid rate. The lookup above relabels the term field when you switch rate type for exactly this reason.

Finishing the rate spread
An APOR on its own is half the calculation. The rate spread HMDA asks for is your loan’s APR minus this figure, and under the current methodology it is reported whether it is positive or negative, to three decimal places. Our rate spread calculator does that subtraction and states which APOR it used, and it explains the conditions under which the field is reported as NA instead.
If the calculation is one you run across a whole register rather than one loan at a time, Comply HMDA/CRA/SBL calculates rate spreads for a portfolio against the same weekly tables, with the methodology chosen per loan.
How do lenders use APOR to flag higher-priced mortgage loans?
Regulation Z runs the same APOR comparison to decide whether a loan is a higher-priced mortgage loan (HPML). Under 12 CFR 1026.35(a), a closed-end consumer loan secured by the borrower’s principal dwelling is higher-priced when its APR exceeds the APOR for a comparable transaction, as of the date the rate was set, by at least:
- 1.5 percentage points for a first lien at or below Freddie Mac’s maximum loan amount in effect on that date
- 2.5 percentage points for a first lien above that amount
- 3.5 percentage points for a subordinate lien
A first-lien HPML needs an escrow account for property taxes and insurance, and HPMLs carry extra appraisal requirements unless an exemption applies. To run the test on a single loan, use our higher-priced mortgage loan checker.
This is where the history earns its keep. An HPML review usually looks back: a compliance team checking last quarter’s closings has to measure each loan against the week its rate was set, which is often weeks before closing. Testing against today’s APOR, or the APOR for the closing week, misclassifies loans in both directions whenever rates move. Record the effective week with each loan’s spread and a later review can reproduce the HPML call without repeating the lookup.
Methodology and sources
Every figure on this page comes from two files and nothing else: the APOR tables the CFPB publishes on the FFIEC’s HMDA platform, which are the benchmark for the rate spread reported under Regulation C, 12 CFR 1003.4(a)(12).
- APOR Fixed Rates Table, FFIEC. https://files.ffiec.cfpb.gov/apor/YieldTableFixed.txt
- APOR Adjustable Rates Table, FFIEC. https://files.ffiec.cfpb.gov/apor/YieldTableAdjustable.txt
Both are linked from the CFPB’s Rate Spread Calculator documentation. They were retrieved on October 27, 2026, and this page holds 513 weekly rows covering January 2, 2017 to October 26, 2026, for terms of 1 to 50 years in both series.
Nothing is estimated or interpolated. The rates are stored exactly as the FFIEC publishes them, to two decimal places, and displayed at that precision. The two tables were checked against each other on load: they share an identical date column and a strict seven-day cadence with no missing weeks. Where a lock date falls before the first published week, the lookup says so rather than reaching for the nearest figure.
One thing this page is not: it is not the weekly survey file. SurveyTable.csv carries more decimal places but only a rolling 52 weeks, and its columns are survey contract rates rather than the APORs used for the rate spread. If you need full precision on a recent week, that file is the place to get it; for the figure that applies to a lock date, these two tables are.
Refreshed: October 27, 2026. The FFIEC publishes a new week every week, so a date after October 26, 2026 means this page needs refreshing rather than that no rate exists.
