Investment reporting and publication system
The team prepares an investment report, verifies the calculations and aligns the comments. The approved version is passed to the recipient, and subsequent corrections are saved along with the previous report.
The report's data, commentary, and scope applied to the recipient are not linked to the same accepted release version. An unexplained difference is provided to the client or other recipient, and the correction does not reach all affected contacts.
How the solution works
- The recipient, portfolio volume, assessment date and indicators used are determined for the report.
- The accepted data and calculation set is linked to the document version.
- The comment is checked against the same values and their true basis for comparison.
- Authorised revision allows a specific version for the recipient to be released.
- A subsequent significant adjustment receives a correction decision and verification of its transmission.
Key challenges
- Customer and regulatory reports are prepared manually
Solution capabilities
Purpose and Recipients of Reports
Separate documents are prepared for the client, internal review and supervisory authority. Each submission shall specify the required content, the recipient and the verification procedure.
Data Version
The assessment time, the calculation used and the quality status accepted for the released version are specified.
Explanation of the indicator
Currency, tax inclusion, comparison period and purpose of the return method remain understandable.
Commentary review
Market or portfolio explanations are checked against the data, period and method of calculation used. The automatically prepared comment is reviewed by the responsible professional.
Receiver receiving channel
The document shall be transmitted to the correct addressee and to the extent appropriate to his rights.
Correction history
The previous report and the reason for the change are preserved. Each affected recipient is noted for being passed a revised version.
Business context
- Customer and regulatory reports are prepared manually
- The report's data, commentary, and scope applied to the recipient are not linked to the same accepted release version. An unexplained difference is provided to the client or other recipient, and the correction does not reach all affected contacts.
- The client understands the investment result presented to him
- It is important for the reportee to distinguish between contributions, value change and taxes and to know the date of the data. Verified calculation and agreed commentary allow the consultant to explain the result. Clear periodic reports help maintain confidence in the manager, especially when the value of the property varies unfavorably.

Potential impact (%)
The ranges indicate an illustrative relative change in the metric under the stated assumptions. Results depend on the starting position and actual use of the solution. Percentages for different metrics must not be added together.
Reporting reconciliation
16–42%Decreasing
This illustrative scenario assumes that 40-70% of information searches and repeated cross-checks can be addressed. That share is assumed to fall by 40-60%. Company data is needed to verify both the addressable workload and the resulting change.
Active assembly and alignment work for the same report scope is measured.
Non-transferable accepted corrections
5–25%Decreasing
This illustrative scenario assumes that 20-50% of missed actions can be identified through task and deadline tracking. That share is assumed to fall by 25-50%. Company data is needed to verify both the addressable share and the resulting change.
Corrections accepted are counted, with the required transmission not completed according to the prescribed course.
Part of negative feedback on clarity of investment reports
4–15%Decreasing
Indicative assumption: 15-30% of negative reviews relate to unclear portfolio report comments. The decision could reduce this share by 25-50%. This is a scenario of potential; assumptions need to be verified by feedback collected by the company.
When a company starts collecting reviews, negative feedback about the clarity of investment reports is counted from all assessments received on the topic. The same method of assessment applies before and after installation and similar customer groups are compared. Without initial data, the actual change is not determined.
Conditional calculation scenarios. The assumptions have not been validated against client measurements.
When this solution is relevant
- The comment given to the client explains the return of the previous version, although the table already uses a corrected result.
- The report is corrected in the repository, but customers who receive the original version do not receive the required update.
Implementation requirements
The team aligns reporting periods, calculations and comment review. Reports submitted to customers are saved along with subsequent corrections so that the employee can explain the changed result.
Further development options
- Versions of additional recipients and report uses
- Targeted automatic comment preparation actions with source and responsible review
