The process of accumulating the time value of money forward in time on a continuous, or instantaneous, basis. Interest is earned constantly, and at each instant, the interest that accrues immediately begins earning interest on itself.
continuous compounding
Compounding of interest using the shortest possible interval of time. Although continuous compounding sounds impressive, in practice it results in virtually the same effective yield as daily compounding.
