🎯 NAV Pro Tip #4: Corporate Actions & Income Trap Check
Before you finalise the NAV, take 3 minutes to scan corporate actions and income activity:
βœ… Were all corporate actions identified and processed correctly?– Dividends, interest, splits, mergers, or reorganisations today?– Correct ex-date, record date, and payment date applied?– Actions reflected consistently across positions, cash, and income?
βœ… Does income look reasonable vs expectations?– Missing or duplicated dividend/interest income?– Unusual spikes or drops compared to prior periods?– Correct withholding tax treatment applied?
βœ… Any pending or partially processed events?– Corporate actions posted to positions but not cash (or vice versa)?– Income accrued but never settled?– Manual overrides applied without review?
Why this matters:
Corporate actions and income are high-risk NAV areas β€” they often involve manual processing, multiple data sources, and tight deadlines. Small mistakes here can quickly become material NAV errors.
Pro move:
If a corporate action required manual intervention, it deserves a second review β€” even if the NAV β€œbalances.”
