Offering Preferences

*Please note - this article contains information about the New Investor Portal experience. 

Sponsors can pick and choose which Investment Metrics will be shown on the Investor Portal under the My Investments, Open Investments and Closed Investments tabs. 

2020-06-08_12-29-09.png

To choose which investment metrics to display, go to Investor Settings > Offering Preferences. These metrics are configured at the project level, not per individual class, and are set based on project status (Investing, Invested, Liquidated, or Syndicating).

Offering Tile Defaults are metrics that display on Investor Dashboards (as pictured in the image at the beginning of the article) and are set in the left column (as pictured below).

Offering_preferences_-_red.pngOffering Page Defaults are metrics that display on the expanded offering page when an investor selects 'View More Details' on the Offering Tile, and these metrics are set on the right column of the Offering Preference Page.  If the investor has placed investments in multiple classes, they will get information on both classes.  Note: It is a good idea to choose universal metrics that apply to the majority of your deals. If you choose to display a metric and no information is available for that class, the metric will display with a -- through it, as pictured below.

Inception to Date Calculation: ((a)/(i)) x (365/L) x 100

  1. a = sum of all distributions within the specified period
  2. i = Investment Amount
  3. L = DE-DS (+1)

            A. DE = user selected end date

            B. DS = Investment date

            C. (+1) = system will add 1 day if the DE or DS value falls on the first or last day of the month

EXAMPLE:

DS = 01/25/2017

DE = 03/31/2019

L = 796

a = 87,500

i = 100,000

Result = ((87,500)/(100,000)) x (365/796) x 100 = 40.12%

Year to Date Calculation: ((a)/(i)) x (365/L) x 100

  1. a = sum of all distributions within the specified period
  2. i = Investment Amount
  3. L = DE-DS + 1

        A. DE = user selected end date

        B. DS = based on DE selection, 01/01/yyyy

EXAMPLE:

DS = 01/01/2019

DE = 03/31/2019

L = 90

a = 10,000

i = 100,000

Result = ((10,000)/(100,000)) x (365/90) x 100 = 40.56%

Trailing 3 Months Calculation: ((a)/(i)) x (365/L) x 100

  1. a = sum of all distributions within the specified period
  2. i = Investment Amount
  3. L = DE-DS (+1)

          A. DE = user selected end date

          B. DS = based on DE selection, 3 month look back  

          C. (+1) = system will add 1 day if the DE or DS value falls on the first or last day of the month

EXAMPLE:

DS = 01/01/2019

DE = 03/31/2019

L = 90

a = 10,000

i = 100,000

Result = ((10,000)/(100,000)) x (365/90) x 100 = 40.56%

Trailing 12 Month Calculation: ((a)/(i)) x (365/L) x 100

  1. a = sum of all distributions within the specified period
  2. i = Investment Amount
  3. L = DE-DS

          A. DE = user selected end date

          B. DS = based on DE selection, 365 day look back  

EXAMPLE:

DS = 03/31/2018

DE = 03/31/2019

L = 365

a = 47,500

i = 100,000

Result = ((47,500)/(100,000)) x (365/365) x 100 = 47.5%
