基點
basis point
衡量利率的最小單位。一個基本點相當於 0.01%，因此如果說債券殖利率上漲10個基準點，則表示上漲的幅度為 0.1%。用來顯示利率的最低單時,0.01%為一基點。在外匯市場中顯示匯價時,則為該貨幣報價的最低單位, 例如美元兌日圓,以0.01為一基點,美元兌港元則以0.001為一基點。
Measurable minimum unit rate. A basic point is equivalent to 0.01%, so if bond yields rose 10 basis points, said the rise was 0.1% margin. When used to display a single minimum rate of 0.01 per cent a point. When showing the exchange rate in the foreign exchange market, the currency unit was the lowest offer, such as the US dollar against the yen, with 0.01 as a starting point, the Hong Kong dollar 0.001 places as a starting point.
