Weekly NAV calculation for funds
A reliable and consistent fund valuation is the foundation of trust between fund and investors. WeManage handles the weekly calculation of Net Asset Value, fully documented and transparent.
What does weekly NAV calculation involve?
NAV stands for Net Asset Value. It is the value of all assets of a fund minus all liabilities, divided by the number of participations or shares. The NAV per participation indicates what one share in the fund is worth at a given moment.
The NAV is calculated based on the current value of investments, liquid assets and the liabilities and costs of the fund. A weekly calculation gives investors and management up-to-date insight into performance and the financial position of the fund.
The exact valuation methodology may depend on the fund structure, fund documentation and the nature of the investments. WeManage applies the methodology that fits your specific fund. A sound NAV calculation is closely tied to a solid compliance structure.

Why is weekly NAV calculation important?
For a fund manager or fund initiator, a reliable NAV calculation is essential. It influences investor decisions, reporting to regulators and confidence in the fund.
- Investors use NAV to track the value of their participation and make decisions about entry or exit.
- A consistent valuation methodology prevents discussions and ambiguity about the fund’s position.
- Regulators may require accurate and timely valuation as part of reporting obligations.
- Weekly reporting gives management up-to-date insight to adjust strategy where needed.
- Transparency toward investors strengthens confidence in the fund and the manager.
