Understanding APY
What is APY?
Annual Percentage Yield (APY) is the real rate of return earned on your savings account over a year, taking into account the effect of compounding interest. The higher the APY, the more your money grows.
Why APY Matters
Even small differences in APY can significantly impact your earnings over time. A 4.5% APY versus 0.01% APY means earning $450 versus $1 on a $10,000 deposit annually.
