Details

The key conventions are tabulated below.

Creator	Spot lag (days)	Fixing calendars	Day basis	Day convention	EOM
AUDBBSW()	0	AUSYCalendar	act/365	ms	FALSE
EURIBOR()	2	EUTACalendar	act/360	mf	TRUE
GBPLIBOR()	0	GBLOCalendar	act/365	mf	TRUE
JPYLIBOR()	2	GBLOCalendar	act/360	mf	TRUE
JPYTIBOR()	2	JPTOCalendar	act/365	mf	FALSE
NZDBKBM()	0	NZWECalendar, NZAUCalendar	act/365	mf	FALSE
USDLIBOR()	2	USNYCalendar, GBLOCalendar	act/360	mf	TRUE
CHFLIBOR()	2	GBLOCalendar	act/360	mf	TRUE
HKDHIBOR()	0	HKHKCalendar	act/365	mf	FALSE
NOKNIBOR()	2	NOOSCalendar	act/360	mf	FALSE

There are some nuances to this. Sub-1m LIBOR and TIBOR spot lags are zero days (excepting spot-next rates) and use the following day convention and the overnight USDLIBOR index uses both USNYCalendar and GBLOCalendar calendars.
