NAV Movement Analysis

pControl NAV Movement Analysis provides fund accountants with a consistent methodology to diagnose and explain price or valuation movements and remedy exceptions before a price is released.

NAV Movement Analysis is a standard methodology designed to explain the impact of any category of NAV movement between valuation points.  The methodology provides consistency for operations teams and allows fund accountants the ability to drill from total level exceptions to underlying valuation or transaction details.

NAV Movement Analysis provides a configurable framework allowing standard validations to be performed across any NAV movement category and new checks to be added quickly and easily.
