Fixed Income Loans

Overview

• AssetView's Fixed Income Loans App splits the acquisition of a fixed income loan into two parts: asset entry and transaction entry.
• For each buy transaction (i.e loan issuance) of a fixed income loan, the Fixed Income Loans App will automatically create transactions in accordance with the coupon schedule.
• AssetView then shows you a summary of the market value, premium, cash flow, and yields.
• The Fixed Income Loan Offer pane enables you to enter an offer date and a price with which AssetView calculates the effective yield to offer.
• This may be used to calculate yield with a penalty for early repayment.

Dashboard and Structured View

On the Dashboard for a fixed income loan asset and on the Structured View when you select Fixed Income, AssetView calculates and displays details on your:

• Investment components
• Maturity
• Interest
• Yields

On a fixed income loan asset page, AssetView allows you to enter an offer price on the asset as of a specified date. AssetView then calculates a yield. AssetView also calculate the remaining yield for the fixed income loan using the current day (i.e. today) as the settlement date.

Offer

On a fixed income loan asset, the Offer pane enables you to enter an offer date and a price with which AssetView calculates the yield. If you have multiple purchases of the fixed income loan, AssetView calculates the yield using a weighted settlement date based on the proportion of cost attributable to each purchase.
