Fisher Effect

A theory proposed by economist Irving Fisher that describes the relationship between inflation and both real and nominal interest rates.

Nominal Interest Rate

The interest rate as stated without adjustment for inflation, representing the face value of financial transactions.

Real Interest Rate

This rate adjusts the nominal interest rate to remove the effects of inflation, providing a more accurate measure of the true cost of borrowing or the true return on investment.

Redistribution
