The Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) says it has started action in the Federal Court against ANZ for allegedly rigging interest rates.
ASIC alleges there has been market manipulation over setting the bank bill swap reference rate, which affects commercial and personal loan rates.
ASIC has been investigating the potential rigging of the rate since 2012.
In a statement, ANZ said it rejected all of the allegations and would "vigorously defend legal action".
