Etymology
The term 'uncapped' is derived from the prefix 'un-', meaning 'not' or 'opposite of', and 'capped', which comes from the verb 'cap', meaning to cover or limit something. The use of 'cap' in this sense dates back to the 15th century, originally referring to a lid or cover. Over time, 'cap' evolved to signify a restriction or limitation, particularly in financial and statistical contexts. As various industries, including finance, started to adopt more flexible and performance-based structures in the late 20th and early 21st centuries, the term 'uncapped' began to gain prominence, indicating opportunities that are not constrained by upper limits. This reflects a broader trend toward encouraging results and growth without limitations, making the term widely used in modern business and economics.
