Get Short-term interest rates.

They are the rates at which short-term borrowings are effected between financial institutions or the rate at which short-term government paper is issued or traded in the market.

Short-term interest rates are generally averages of daily rates, measured as a percentage. Short-term interest rates are based on three-month money market rates where available. Typical standardised names are "money market rate" and "treasury bill rate".
