CV The two-character ISO 3166 country code for CAPE VERDE.
CV 1. ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 code for the Republic of Cape Verde. This is the code used in international transactions to and from Cape Verdean bank accounts. 2. ISO 3166-2 geocode for Cape Verde. This is used as an international standard for shipping to Cape Verde. However, it is not locally used; the nation uses its own National Geographic Code of Cape Verde. Coefficient of Variation (CV) ![]() What Does Coefficient of Variation (CV) Mean? A statistical measure of the dispersion of data points in a data series around the mean.It is calculated as follows: The coefficient of variation represents the ratio of the standard deviation to the mean; it is a useful statistic for comparing the degree of variation from one data series to another even if the means are drastically different from each other. Investopedia explains Coefficient of Variation (CV) The coefficient of variation allows investors to determine how much volatility (risk) they are assuming in relation to the amount of expected return from an investment; the lower the ratio of standard deviation to the mean return is, the better the risk-return trade-off is. Note that if the expected return in the denominator of the calculation is negative or zero, the ratio will not make sense. Related Terms: How to thank TFD for its existence?

I am in the middle of reading the recently released All the Poems of Muriel Spark (2004) and eagerly await the follow-up to the first part of her autobiography Curriculum Vitae (1992). The references listed in the curriculum vitae that formed part of Paul Nettl's application to Indiana University included Albert Einstein, German physicist and Nobel prizewinner in 1921; Alfred Einstein, German musicologist; and Thomas Mann, German novelist, critic and Nobel prizewinner in 1929. Coombs' importance in modern Australian history as the supreme public servant can be gauged from the entries in his extraordinary curriculum vitae, ranging from his early years as a bank economist and treasury official, to wartime appointments as director of Rationing and director-general of Postwar Reconstruction, to governor of both the Commonwealth and Reserve Banks (the latter from 1949 to 1968). |
