  2. Short-term interest rates refer to interest rates charge on loan contracts or debt instruments with maturity period of one year and below;   
  medium-term   interest rates on loan contracts or debt instruments with maturity period of more than one year to five years; and long-term  
   interest rates on loan contracts or debt instruments with maturity period of more than five years.

  by collaterals.
