Episode Synopsis

Net interest margin is a measurement comparing the net interest income a financial firm generates from credit products like loans and mortgages, with the outgoing interest it pays holders of savings accounts and certificates of deposit. Expressed as a percentage, the NIM is a profitability indicator that approximates the likelihood of a bank or investment firm thriving over the long haul. This metric helps prospective investors determine whether or not to invest in a given financial services firm by providing visibility into the profitability of their interest income versus their interest expenses. A positive net interest margin suggests that an entity operates profitably, while a negative figure implies investment inefficiency.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/investment-terms--4432332/support.
