Definition
复利 is a financial term meaning 'compound interest' — interest calculated on both the initial principal and the accumulated interest from previous periods. Unlike simple interest (单利), which only earns interest on the original amount, 复利 grows exponentially over time. You'll encounter it in banking, investing, and loan contexts.
