A basis point (often abbreviated as bp, often pronounced as "bip" or "beep"[1]) is one hundredth of 1 percentage point. Changes of interest rates are often stated in basis points. For example, if an existing interest rate of 10 percent is increased by 1 basis point, the new interest rate would be 10.01 percent.[2]
The related term permyriad means one thousandth of 1 percentage point.
