"9. Verrechnung
Angefallene Zinsen werden jeweils zum Quartalsende kapitalisiert."
"Accrued interest will be capitalised to the end of each quarter."
I know there are entries for "Verrechnung", but I don't know which one fits for this particular context. What I've quoted above is all there is in this section of the contract. Just this one sentence.

settlement
verrechnen is to miscalculate and Verrechnung is a settlement!

: With all due respect, it seems inappropriate to quote the "PONS Großwörterbuch für Experten" when it comes to finance/accounting terms. Re. your note, "to miscalculate" is the equivalent of "sich verrechnen" while "verrechnen" is to set off/settle.
