Nominal-to-Effective Rate with Continuous Compounding

The effective interest rate is the interest rate on a loan or financial product restated from the nominal interest rate as an interest rate with annual compound interest payable in arrears.

The effective interest rate equals the exponential of the nominal interest rate minus 1.
