Method and System for Calculating and Reporting Fund Values for Omnibus Investment Accounts

摘要

An omnibus fund accounting system is described that comprises a system of servers and databases connected to a network that can host a set of application instructions and a fund investment database to manage multiple fund investments. An institutional investor places an investment with an investment fund. The institutional investment comprises a plurality of individual investors who may invest at varied times and in varied amounts. The discrepancies in investment initiation dates by individual investors causes expenses such as performance based management fees to be assessed differently against each individual investor. The omnibus fund accounting system tracks the increases or decreases in overall fund performance with respect to the institutional investment or, alternatively, with respect to the fund as a whole. This may be reflected by the overall net asset value of the institutional investment or the fund as a whole as determined by the omnibus fund accounting system. The omnibus fund accounting system also accommodates the deviations in costs attributable to each individual investor while tracking the overall institutional investment performance. The omnibus fund accounting system may accommodate deviations in costs for each individual investor with the addition of positive unit adjustments or subtraction of negative unit adjustments to or from individual accounts. The omnibus fund accounting system reports the performance of the individual investments and the overall institutional investment to the institutional investor.
