Use Model portfolios to compare client accounts to an ideal asset allocation. Accounts, either individually or in groups, can be automatically rebalanced to a model. Create standalone model portfolios in CGI’s MVest portfolio management solution, or combine models to create dynamic models with each “sleeve” independently managed. Models can hold any combination of security-types, with user-defined security classifications providing great flexibility.

Rebalance large groups of portfolios to their original allocations at the click of a button. The resulting list of proposed trades can be edited to fine-tune trades or deal with any highlighted constraint violations prior to creating orders to send for execution.

Use the embedded trading worksheets to examine different trading scenarios on a single portfolio or group of portfolios. Alternately, use the Trade Calculator to quickly bring a portfolio or group of portfolios to a certain position.

Allow trades to be blocked together prior to sending to market or via FIX messaging to an execution system through MVest’s integrated order management module. Combine trades from multiple users and multiple lists into large consolidated blocks. CGI’s MVest solution electronically accepts fill information and retains the originating portfolio information, allowing for automated allocation of fills.

Provide GIPS-compliant performance measurement with MVest’s daily-weighted performance calculations. Create user-defined composites and blended benchmarks to track your portfolios. Reports can be generated for any set of time periods.

Use the MVest portfolio management and accounting solution to perform full valuation and strike the daily unit values for your mutual, segregated and pooled funds. MVest’s new “NAV Proof” functionality provides an exception-based method of streamlining the NAV verification process, increasing the efficiency and capacity of your fund accounting resources. MVest has sophisticated multi-class and multi-manager processing, allowing you to easily track different series of a single fund. MVest’s pooled fund functionality provides look-through ability to view a pooled fund either as a single holding or to show the underlying positions within a client account.

Use MVest’s fully integrated accounting functionality as the foundation of your fund valuation platform. CGI’s MVest solution is relied on by some of the largest fund companies in North America to validate their funds’ unit values. Define custom charts of accounts and authorize journal entries and accruals while providing complete financial reporting capabilities. MVest’s integrated general ledger provides automated processes to enable fund accountants to meet the industry’s complex requirements efficiently and easily. MVest’s general ledger is relied upon by many leading fund companies to accurately produce daily NAV calculations, distributions and full financial reporting.

Bring together information from custody, market data, trade execution, brokerage and other applications. As a portfolio management system, the MVest portfolio management solution is an information hub connecting multiple systems – a core strength of its modernized Interface capabilities. MVest’s generic interface “engines” allow for quick mapping to external data sources and the ability for users to configure details of each interface by creating custom filters and cross-reference tables.

Generate and store all the information you need to produce client statements and a host of other client-facing reports; MVest’s reporting capabilities seamlessly integrate with its companion statement and reporting modules. For your internal reporting needs, CGI’s MVest solution has the answer with over 400 reports available on-demand in multiple formats such as pdf, word, excel and html. Reports can be run for individual or consolidated portfolios, in the currency of choice, utilizing user-defined security classifications. Reports are automatically stored in a central location and can be searched, filtered and archived for extended storage.

Ensure decisions made on the portfolio meet external and internal guidelines. In today’s increasingly regulated industry, MVest’s pre- and post-trade compliance functionality provides for user-defined rules which govern the holdings and trading activity on the portfolio. Exclude specific securities or asset classes, define acceptable ranges, set minimum ratings levels and more.

Create flat rate rules, escalating tiers, asset-based and transaction fees or combine them in any number of ways. No firm has a “one size fits all” approach to management fees, so CGI has built in the flexibility to create custom fee rules specific to each advisor, household, client or portfolio. The MVest portfolio management and accounting solution not only generates the fees, it also provides the ability to create invoices and track payments with just a few mouse clicks.
