About this course

In this course you strike the daily NAV of a fictional open-ended fund step by step. You price every holding from a vendor price file with XLOOKUP and convert it with FX rates, build the statement of net assets and round the NAV per unit to four decimals. You accrue the management fee and fixed expenses by calendar day, deal subscriptions and redemptions with ROUNDDOWN and keep a unit register with SUMIFS. You book dividends on the ex-date, accrue bond interest, compute a distribution per unit and a performance fee above a hurdle and a high-water mark, run NAV checks for tolerance breaks and stale prices, and finish with investor statements and a NAV chart.
