Understanding NAV

  • Formula: NAV = (Total Assets - Total Liabilities) / Total Units
  • Updated: After each end-of-day (EOD) processing
  • Used For: Unit pricing for purchases and redemptions

NAV is calculated from:

  1. Total Assets: Market value of all investments and cash
  2. Total Liabilities: All outstanding obligations
  3. Net Assets: Assets minus liabilities
  4. Total Units: Number of units outstanding
  • NAV is recalculated during EOD processing
  • Manual NAV calculations are also available
  • Historical NAV values are preserved
