Swap Rates Interpolation for AUD

The ASX BBSW rates have the following tenors:
  • 1M
  • 2M
  • 3M
  • 4M
  • 5M
  • 6M
Anyone knows what's the convention for interpolating a stub on a rate swap if one coupon is shorter than 1M (short stub) or longer than 6M (long stub) ?

What are the rules for EOM effective dates for Libor

Does anyone has a link to an official resources to know if the end date is preserving the end of month for LIBOR fixings ?
i.e. if on USD LIBOR today +2bd is an end of months, does that mean that LIBOR1M will end as well on the last business day of the end of month ?

FX Forwards Convention

<t>Thanks, I understand this part. But once you trade, on the confirmation, will the dealer add these pips to the the bid ask spot or will he use the mid ? In other words: is the bid ask of the forwards added on the top of the bid ask for the spot ? Is that what you said by 'including for spot' ? </t>

Erratic Bond Pricing?

Since you mentioned that they have the same credit risk, I guess it could not be that one is double-barreled.I am not familiar with the muni market, but could one have implicit optionality such as callability ?
