    Rates are timestamped, append-only observations of what each named provider quotes — not interpolated mids. Every provider type is ranked only among its own kind, never across types: "Best IMTO" is the best quote among IMTOs checked in the last 24 hours (weekends not counted for banks, which publish on weekdays only), and a type with a single current quote shows it as the only quote, not the best. Where one figure stands for a corridor it is the best IMTO quote, or the best of the first provider type that quotes it, named with its type. Official and parallel reference prints, and quotes not checked in that time, are shown on the corridor pages but never ranked.
