Solution: NAV Oversight

Zero Price Control

Automate Zero Price Control

Fund Recs automates zero price detection by checking pricing data across all assets and sources, highlighting securities priced at zero instantly. The platform gives teams clear visibility of valuation issues and ensures zero prices are identified, reviewed, and resolved without manual effort.

 

For the Analysts

  • Automated zero price checks
    Detect all securities priced at zero across administrator, custodian, or market data feeds.

  • Configurable thresholds
    Define rules for asset types, pricing sources, or ageing requirements to focus on relevant cases.

  • Support for all instruments
    Monitor equities, bonds, derivatives, structured products, and private assets.

 

For Oversight Teams

  • Exception dashboards
    View zero-priced securities by fund or asset type. Prioritise items needing investigation.

  • Audit-ready reporting
    Generate structured reports showing zero prices, pricing sources, ageing, and review commentary.

 

How It Works

  • Data ingestion and standardisation
    Load pricing data from all sources — administrators, custodians, market feeds, or internal models. Fund Recs standardises formats automatically.

  • Zero price detection engine
    Scan all prices and flag instruments showing a price of zero or missing values.

  • Exception management
    Assign, comment, and resolve zero-price exceptions within the platform. All actions are recorded for audit.

  • Daily automation
    Run checks across full portfolios each day with instant, reliable results.

 

Why Zero Price Control Matters

Zero prices can distort valuations, impact NAVs, and trigger audit concerns. Manual checks often miss zero-priced assets, especially in large or illiquid portfolios. Automating zero price monitoring with Fund Recs improves accuracy, reduces risk, and ensures valuation processes remain reliable across all funds.

Problem

The Zero Price Challenge

Zero or missing prices occur for many reasons — illiquidity, stale pricing, failed data feeds, or instrument-level issues. Identifying them manually is slow and inconsistent, particularly across large multi-asset portfolios. Missed zero prices can lead to material valuation errors and delayed reporting.
