Key Terms

net promoter score technical

Net Promoter Score (NPS) is a single-number measure of customer loyalty based on asking customers how likely they are to recommend a company’s product or service to others; responses are grouped and converted to a score from -100 to +100. It matters to investors because a high NPS suggests strong customer satisfaction, lower churn and more organic growth through word-of-mouth—like a reputation score that can predict future sales and brand resilience.

federal reserve system regulatory

The Federal Reserve System is the United States' central banking network that acts like a bank for banks and a thermostat for the economy: it sets short-term interest rates, supplies or withdraws money, and oversees financial stability. Investors watch its decisions because changes in interest rates and liquidity affect borrowing costs, company profits, bond yields and overall market sentiment—similar to how a building's thermostat influences comfort and energy use.

federal deposit insurance corporation regulatory

A U.S. government agency that insures customer deposits at member banks up to a set limit, acting like a safety net so people don’t lose their cash if a bank fails. It matters to investors because it helps maintain confidence in the banking system, reduces the chance of sudden withdrawals or bank runs, and can influence the stability and share prices of banks and financial markets.
