WILMINGTON, Del., June 05, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Navient (Nasdaq: NAVI), a leader in technology-enabled education finance and business processing solutions, announced that it plans to transition outstanding U.S. Dollar (USD) LIBOR-indexed Navient-issued instruments to Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) after June 30, 2023.
