valuation Attribution as the Cornerstone

1. Why Valuation Attribution is Essential

In a rapidly evolving market, fund managers face growing pressure from both investors and regulators to demonstrate greater transparency and accountability. Traditional valuations—often delivered quarterly or annually—offer a static number without explaining the factors behind fluctuations in asset values. This lack of visibility can lead to:

• Liquidity Issues: Mispriced NAVs reduces fund liquidity and investors’ ability to transact.

• Erosion of Investor Confidence: Without clear insights, investors lose trust in the fund’s ability to manage risk effectively.

• Regulatory Scrutiny: Regulators increasingly expect more frequent and detailed valuations to ensure compliance.

Valuation Attribution solves these problems by breaking down the key drivers influencing valuation changes—such as market sentiment, cap and discount rates, leasing trends, and broader economic indicators. By delivering a detailed view of what’s driving value, Valuation Attribution empowers fund managers to make data-driven decisions and stay ahead of market shifts.
