Le montant du prêt (le notionnel) n'est qu'un capital théorique servant de référence au calcul des intérêts. Le contrat ne donne lieu à aucune livraison de fonds, dissociant l'opération de garantie du taux d'intérêt de l'obtention ou de la mise à disposition des fonds empruntés ou prêtés. À la date de prise d'effet du prêt théorique, les deux parties comparent le taux d'intérêt du marché avec le taux garanti pour la période retenue et règlent entre elles le différentiel d'intérêt. 3, record 1, French, - garantie%20de%20taux%20d%27int%C3%A9r%C3%AAt
