Following are the list of [[Kurdish language|Kurdish]] television channels in service.

The '''TED spread''' is the difference between the interest rates on interbank loans and [[Treasury security#Treasury bill|short-term U.S. government debt]] ("T-bills").


==Satellite==
Initially, the TED spread was the difference between the interest rates for three-month [[Treasury security|U.S. Treasuries]] contracts and the three-month [[Eurodollar]]s contract as represented by the [[London Inter Bank Offered Rate]] (LIBOR). However, since the [[Chicago Mercantile Exchange]] dropped T-bill futures, the TED spread is now calculated as the difference between the three-month T-bill interest rate and three-month [[London Inter Bank Offered Rate|LIBOR]].

TED is an [[Acronym and initialism|acronym]] formed from ''T-Bill'' and ''ED'', the ticker symbol for the Eurodollar futures contract. The size of the spread is usually denominated in [[basis point]]s (bps). For example, if the T-bill rate is 5.10% and ED trades at 5.50%, the TED spread is 40 bps. The TED spread fluctuates over time, but historically has often remained within the range of 10 and 50 bps (0.1% and 0.5%), until 2007. A rising TED spread often presages a downturn in the U.S. stock market, as it indicates that liquidity is being withdrawn.

The TED spread is an indicator of perceived credit risk in the general economy<ref>[http://www.bloomberg.com/invest/glossary/bfglost.htm#ted_spread Bloomberg.com Financial Glossary]</ref>. This is because T-bills are considered risk-free while LIBOR reflects the credit risk of lending to commercial banks. When the TED spread increases, that is a sign that lenders believe the risk of default on interbank loans (also known as counterparty risk) is increasing. Interbank lenders therefore demand a higher rate of interest, or accept lower returns on safe investments such as T-bills. When the risk of bank defaults is considered to be decreasing, the TED spread decreases<ref>[http://krugman.blogs.nytimes.com/2008/03/12/mission-not-accomplished-not-yet-anyway/ Mission not accomplished not yet, anyway - Paul Krugman - Op-Ed Columnist - New York Times Blog<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref>.

During 2007, the [[subprime mortgage crisis]] ballooned the TED spread to a region of 150-200 bps. On September 17, 2008, the record set after the [[Black Monday (1987)|Black Monday]] crash of 1987 was broken as the TED spread exceeded 300 bps<ref>''Financial Times''. (2008).

Some higher readings for the spread were due to inability to obtain accurate LIBOR rates in the absence of a liquid unsecured lending market<ref>[http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601087&sid=aVGxm.ZU.0jM& Bloomberg - Libor Jumps as Banks Seek Cash to Shore Up Finances]</ref>. On October 10, 2008, the TED spread reached another new high of 465 basis points. The longterm average of the TED has been 30 basis points.
