Key Features
Positions
A system of accounts and sub-portfolios makes separating and categorising client investments easy. You can view, search and manage positions on holdings across a range of clients.
Modelling and construction
Portfolios are viewed and constructed at the account or sub-portfolio level, and flexible modelling tools allow you to construct portfolios:
• manually based on specific holdings.
• based on model targets, consisting of a selection of securities with a recommended weighting for each security.
Corporate actions
Manually manage, or automatically schedule corporate actions to run across client holdings. Comprehensive and automatically generated corporate action templates support all common events, across a wide range of global equity markets, or alternatively, you can build your own. Corporate actions are applied to individual or multiple portfolios and can be run and reversed any number of times.
Profit Analysis
Analyse the current portfolio, or related entities’ performance over a user-defined period, and compare to market benchmarks. Performance detail is available in both internal rate of return (IRR), or GIPS compliant and daily time-weighted rate of return (TWRR). Calculations can be measured at an individual holding, account or sub-portfolio level, as well as at many other market segments.
Tax assessment
Access both unrealised and realised capital gains details, using a range of methods including the availability of optimised rules for trade match jurisdictions. Period-end income tax reporting is also available and is generated using tax-related data from transactions.
Reporting
Generate comprehensive and consolidated portfolio reports for any number of client-related entities and sub-portfolios. Reporting covers all areas of valuation, such as transactions, tax, performance, compliance and asset allocation.
Fees
Calculate and manage all of your ongoing client fees, with access to a comprehensive portfolio fee engine. Funds under management fees, as well as transaction-based fees, are supported by both end- of-period and weighted average calculations.
Trade execution
You can initiate and send orders directly to brokers from within the interface with both pre- and post- trade compliance checks. Orders are monitored in real-time, allowing you to see the market as your broker sees it. You can also view orders that a broker creates via trading interfaces on your behalf or at the request of the client.
Compliance Management
Pre- and post-trade monitoring of client portfolios and orders ensure investments are in line with both agreed client, and organisational limits.
