The total interest (as a percentage) for any given period - for example 0.014% per day.
The given period may be less than one year, equal to one year, or more than one year.
Another example of a periodic rate of interest would be 12.36% per two years.
Not to be confused with the effective annual rate and the nominal annual rate, which are different.
