Planning

Overview

AssetView supports two types of planning: algorithmic and transactional.

Planning TypeDescription
Algorithmic planningEnables you to set variables that adjust your portfolio balancing and rates of return to project future values
Transactional planningEnables you to articulate planned transactions on specific assets that render exact future performance

Algorithmic Planning with AssetView's Envision App

Envision is AssetView's next-generation planning App to develop a strategic financial plan. Envision's projection models, based on your portfolio, enable you to evaluate how different investment strategies impact your future. Model the effects of rebalancing, reallocating, or shifting towards a more risk-averse or aggressive market posture. Easily explore what-if scenarios with levers that adjust rates of return and allocations by asset class, sector, geography, risk profile, and more — turning questions into insights. Visit the Envision App Support Page to learn more.

Transactional Planning

Transactional planning gives you highly specific results about an asset, and rolls those results up so that you see the impact on accounts that hold positions on the asset and your portfolio.

Scope

You may create a Planned asset (i.e. an asset for which you have no current holding) and may create Planned Transactions for any current or planned asset.

Purposes

AssetView uses planned transactions to do the following.

  • Create a plan for investments, divestitures, and redemptions
  • Create a plan for anticipated distributions and expenses (e.g. financial advisor fees)
  • View and assess the potential performance of potential transactions
  • View and analyze the characteristics (e.g. risk and diversification) of a planned portfolio
  • View and analyze projected cash levels and cash requirements

    Example: Planned Transactions

Changing State

You may change a Planned Transaction or a Pending Transaction to an Active Transaction by Booking it.
