Net Asset Value (NAV)

Definition

NAV is the per-share value of a fund calculated by dividing total net assets by shares outstanding. It's used to price mutual funds and as a reference for ETFs.

Formula

NAV = (Total Assets - Total Liabilities) / Shares Outstanding

Example

A fund with $1 billion in assets, $10 million in liabilities, and 50 million shares has NAV = ($1B - $10M) / 50M = $19.80 per share.
