Manage Cash Flow Estimates

When you use Partial Swing Pricing, you need to load estimated cap stock cash flows into the system. Cash flows come in as the Total Fund Subscription and Redemption estimates for the day. The Total Net Balance, which is the sum of these estimates, is then compared to the predefined Swing Decision Bid and Ask thresholds. If the net balance exceeds the threshold, the Swing Factor is applied to the class level Total Net Assets (TNA) and swings up (Ask) or down (Bid) depending on whether the net balance is an inflow or outflow, respectively.
