Compound Annual Growth Rate

« Back to Glossary Index

Compound Annual Growth Rate or CAGR is the average annual growth rate of a market, business, or investment over a specific period.

CAGR is a simplified metric giving a smoothed rate of growth or return, without accounting for the volatility, risk, and fluctuations that can occur year-to-year.

It’s often used to analyse markets, stocks, or other investments.
