What is a basis point?
A basis point (bps) is one hundredth of a percentage point. In other words, 1 bps = 0.01% and 100 bps = 1%. Basis points are used in finance to describe small changes in interest rates, bond yields, and other percentages, because saying “25 basis points” is clearer than saying “a quarter of a percent.”
The conversion formula
Percent → BPS: bps = percent × 100
BPS → Percent: percent = bps ÷ 100
For example, 0.50% × 100 = 50 bps, and 275 bps ÷ 100 = 2.75%.
