For a deep dive into the transition from LIBOR to SOFR and its implications on rates and swaps, here are some recommended readings and resources based on the WSO content:

  1. Interest Rate Swaps and Other Derivatives by Howard Corb - While this book primarily covers the broader aspects of swaps and derivatives, it provides a solid foundation that can be helpful in understanding the nuances of newer benchmarks like SOFR. Although it was written before the LIBOR phase-out, the fundamental concepts remain relevant.

  2. "The end of LIBOR" thread on Wall Street Oasis - This forum discussion from August 27, 2018, explores the early adoption challenges and considerations of SOFR in real estate loans. It provides real-world insights from finance professionals about transitioning from LIBOR to SOFR.

  3. "Pick Your Poison | The Daily Peel | 10/6/21 | Wall Street Oasis" - This article discusses the significant shift from LIBOR to SOFR, emphasizing the importance of this change in the financial markets. It compares SOFR to LIBOR, highlighting SOFR's advantages as a more accurate reflection of market conditions due to its basis in actual transactions.

These resources should provide a comprehensive understanding of the transition from LIBOR to SOFR, especially in the context of rates and swaps.

Looking for such materials as well as I am starting FT on a related desk.

Have came across this book "Pricing and Trading Interest Rate Derivatives: A Practical Guide to Swaps" not sure whether it's good since I have yet to purchase it but it is surely up-to-date.
