Annual percentage yield

The interest on the funds in your account is calculated on the basis of simple interest rate, and the annual percentage yield indicates how much income you would earn if the interest earned on the deposit were regularly reinvested as part of the deposit.
The calculation of the annual percentage yield on the deposit is made on the basis of the following formula set under the Central Bank of the Republic of Armenia Regulation 8/02 "Calculation of the annual percentage yield of bank deposits":

APY=(1+r/ո)ո-1,
where:
• APY – annual percentage yield
• r – annual simple interest rate
• ո - the frequency of interest capitalization within one year

 

Loan interest is calculated based on the nominal interest rate applied to the deductible balance, and the actual annual interest rate shows how much the loan will cost you when you make timely interest payments and all the related mandatory fees and payments related to loan disbursement.
The procedure for calculating the annual actual interest rate can be found at the following link
