Frequently Asked Questions
What is Annual Percentage Yield (APY)?
Annual percentage yield (APY) is a measure of the total amount of interest earned on an investment over a year, expressed as a percentage of the initial investment. APY takes into account the effects of compounding, which is the process of reinvesting the interest earned on investment to generate additional earnings.
APY is typically used to compare the performance of different investment products, such as savings accounts, certificates of deposit (CDs), and other financial instruments. The higher the APY, the greater the potential earnings on investment over time.
What’s the Difference Between APY and APR?
It’s important to note that APY is different from the annual percentage rate (APR), which is the interest rate charged on loans and credit products. APY is used to describe the interest earned on savings and investment products, while APR is used to describe the cost of borrowing money.
