How Show Return As Percentage or Dollar Works

Applies to:
✔ Dynamic ✔ PDF

✔ Client Portal

 

The Account Performance line chart always shows time-weighted returns (TWR). This setting allows you to choose how to display that return: As either a dollar change with a basis of $100, or percent change starting at 0%. Use of this setting is entirely a matter of preference. Some firms will create two side-by-side reports, one with percentage and one with dollar, for easy interpretation.

This setting works in conjunction with Date Period and either Use Inception Date (PDF reports) or Use Date or Date Period as Title (dynamic reports).
