The derived interest rate is 100 - 99.8, so 0.2%.
The reason it is different from the actual bank rate of 0.5% is because this is the average rate that banks charge each other to borrow/lend.
The banks setting these rates are largely crooked so be careful !

But the actual bank rate of 0.5% is actually reflecting those borrow/lend activities between banks, will it be more representative than derived interest rate at 0.2%?
