In Portfolio Data Center's Disclosures workspace, you can create disclosure and incorporate them into any type of entity.

A disclosure is a statement that provides additional information about the entity. For example, Composite returns are calculated on an asset-weighted average basis using beginning-of-period values. Disclosures range from simple statements used for internal reporting to detailed footnotes required for GIPS compliance.

With Disclosures, you can do the following:

  • View a summary list of available disclosures.

  • Assign disclosures to a single entity or multiple entities.

  • Create new disclosures for reporting and GIPS compliance.

  • Generate disclosure content with templates that provide text as well as dynamically retrieved data.

  • Edit, duplicate, and delete existing disclosures.
