- Determine the benchmark assignment selected in the dynamic field. In this example, assume primary comparison index.
- For each fund in the profile, determine the primary comparison index by looking at the fund/benchmark relationship defined in the Portfolio Data Center. Assume Fund 1 has a primary benchmark of Index 1 and Fund 2 has a primary of Index 2.
- When retrieving price data for this field, use the benchmark entity information instead of the profile entity (retrieve prices for Index 1 & 2 instead of Fund 1 & 2).
- Calculate a standard dynamic return using the benchmark prices:
Invest $1,000 (buy shares) on the start date of the performance period.
Reinvest any distributions (typically none for indices).
Determine value on the last day of the period using accumulated shares multiplied by the price.
Calculate return ((EMV/BMV) -1) * 100. - Display the return for Index 1 on the row for Fund 1 (and Index 2 for Fund 2).
