What is Basis Point Increase?

The Basis Point Increase (BPI) measures the change in basis points between two values. Basis points are a unit of measure commonly used in finance to describe the percentage change in value or interest rates. One basis point is equivalent to 0.01%. This calculation helps in understanding shifts in rates, yields, or other financial metrics.

Example Calculation

Consider an example where:

Using the formula to calculate the Basis Point Increase:

\[ \text{BPI} = 150 - 120 = 30 \text{ basis points} \]

This means that the basis point increase for this example is 30 basis points.
