Understanding Valuation Movement in Decision-Making

VAIDA is Valuation Attribution

VAIDA’s valuation attribution framework is designed to support institutional investment decision-making across assets, funds, portfolios, and benchmarks.

The framework enables:

  • Transparent explanation of valuation movement over time

  • Consistent comparison across assets and portfolios

  • Integration of valuation insight into portfolio construction and capital allocation decisions

  • Stronger valuation governance and auditability

By moving beyond opaque valuation outcomes, VAIDA supports more informed, defensible, and repeatable investment decisions.

Understanding Valuation Movements

Investment and capital allocation decisions depend on understanding not just what valuations are, but why they change.

Traditional valuation processes typically produce periodic point-in-time outcomes, often without sufficient transparency into the drivers of valuation movement. This limits an investment team’s ability to assess decision quality, manage valuation risk, and explain outcomes to stakeholders.

Valuation attribution addresses this gap by decomposing changes in asset and portfolio valuations into their underlying drivers — including market inputs, income assumptions, discount and capitalisation rates, and structural factors. This provides a clear, decision-relevant view of what is driving value over time. stay ahead of market shifts.

A Proprietary Analytical Framework

VAIDA’s valuation attribution methodology has been developed through extensive institutional investment and modelling experience and is embedded directly into the platform’s analytical architecture.

The framework focuses on:

  • Explaining valuation movement, not just valuation levels

  • Linking valuation drivers to observable data and assumptions

  • Supporting scenario analysis and forward-looking assessment

  • Enabling consistent benchmarking and governance

This approach allows valuation insight to be treated as an analytical input, rather than a static reporting output.
