Dividend Reconciliation
Ensure every dividend is captured, matched, and accounted for.
The Dividend Reconciliation process compares expected and received dividends across your internal records, fund administrator data, and custodian statements. It highlights missing, duplicate, or incorrect payments so you can maintain accurate income reporting and investor returns.

Why it matters
Accurate dividend reconciliation ensures your income reporting reflects the true position of each fund or account. It prevents missed income, overpayments, and manual errors while supporting precise NAV calculations and investor reporting. Automating this process improves control, reduces risk, and gives teams a clear view of every dividend event from announcement to receipt.
The Dividend Reconciliation is part of the Fund Recs Reconciliation Suite, built to simplify complex financial reconciliations and keep your data complete, accurate, and up to date.
Accurate, Automated Dividend Reconciliation
The Fund Recs Dividend Reconciliation automates the validation of dividend income across custodians, administrators, and internal systems. It standardises data from all sources, matches expected and received amounts, and highlights breaks such as missed, duplicate, or short-paid dividends. Users can drill down to the transaction level, review supporting details like ex-date, pay date, and withholding tax, and resolve exceptions quickly. By removing manual effort and providing real-time visibility, Fund Recs helps teams ensure income accuracy, improve NAV integrity, and maintain full confidence in their dividend reporting.
The Dividend Reconciliation Challenge
Reconciling dividends across custodians, administrators, and internal systems is complex and time-consuming. Data often arrives in inconsistent formats, with timing differences and partial payments that make manual matching difficult. Missed or incorrect dividends can distort income reporting, impact NAV calculations, and create reconciliation backlogs at period-end.

It prevents missed or duplicated payments, reduces manual errors, and supports clean NAV calculations.
