The quarterly rate of interest (or yield) is a quoting convention for the simple interest nominal annual rate for compounding once per quarter (four times per year).

For example, if the quoted quarterly rate is 6.00%, the amount of interest compounded quarterly is 6.00%/4 = 1.50%.

Not to be confused with the related annual effective rate, which in this case is 1.0154 - 1 = 6.14%.
