FAQ
What is a basis point?
One hundredth of a percent — 100 bps equals 1%. Markets use bps to avoid confusion between small rate changes.
Why do lenders quote in basis points?
Precision: a move from 5.25% to 5.375% is unambiguously 12.5 bps, with no ambiguity about decimal places.
How do I convert quickly?
Divide bps by 100 for percent, or multiply percent by 100 for bps — that is all this tool automates.
