How the Basis Point Calculator works
Enter a value in any of the four fields — decimal, percent, permille, or basis points. The calculator instantly converts between them. In the second card, type an amount and an increment in bps (or choose %/decimal) to see the absolute change.
Why use bps?
Basis points remove confusion between percentage and percentage points. A move of 25 bps is always 0.25 percentage points.
