Italian term or phrase: Indicatore Sintetico di Costo
here we go again. I could probably drum up some translation for this, but am sure you financial wizards can come up with something better, and I'm wondering if there is actually an official English term for this.

- il valore dell’Indicatore Sintetico di Costo, calcolato per l’ipotesi di applicazione al mutuo di un tasso di interesse del __________ % nominale annuo per tutta la durata dell’operazione, è pari al ___________ % annuo.

Thanks for your help, without which I would be on the verge of madness

Asker: thanks Ellen, but as I said to Cristina, I get the impression this expression is only used in translations rather than original English documents


Peer comments on this reference comment (and responses from the reference poster)
disagree  Sarah Ferrara: this is just a literal translation from the Italian, doesn't mean anything in English - all google references are translated sites, not original language.

  -> interestingly enough, all references - I mine mine and those offered by Cristina intern are of Italian origin. Why do you find fault with my answer only and not also with that of Cristina ?
