Glossary - Annual Percentage Rate (APR)

|

Learning: Knowledge

The annual percentage rate (APR) is the interest rate over the course of a year. For instance, the APR on a mortgage would be the interest on the full amount of the loan. Financial institutions are required by law to show the APR, which reflects the loan’s real cost. This helps borrowers compare offerings among different lenders.
