Back to Index

 
Definition:
Net Asset Value (NAV) of a financial entity is the value of its total assets minus its total liabilities. For open-ended funds, such as mutual funds, NAV is divided by the number of outstanding shares, which yields the net asset value per share. The NAV per share is calculated and published daily since it determines the price investors will pay for shares of a fund.
