Automated Portfolio Metrics Dashboard for Monthly Executive Reporting

Client

Asset Manager - Fixed Income

Business Problem

The portfolio team was spending excessive time consolidating data from multiple front- and middle-office systems to produce high-level portfolio metrics for the monthly executive report. Inputs arrived in varying formats—CSV exports, internal databases, and spreadsheets—requiring extensive manual work to cleanse, map, and normalise data.

This caused delays in monthly reporting, increased operational risk, and diverted analysts away from investment-critical tasks.

We delivered a robust Excel-based solution that fully automated the monthly reporting workflow.

Key features included:

  • Seamless import of raw data from multiple source systems
  • Automated cleaning, mapping, and transformation logic to align data across fund structures and reporting hierarchies
  • Integrated FX conversion routines for multi-currency portfolios
  • Auto-generation of a polished, high-level metrics dashboard with KPIs, AUM summaries, and risk metrics
  • Built-in PDF export functionality for rapid distribution to C-level stakeholders as part of the monthly executive pack

Results

  • Reduced monthly report preparation time from 6–8 hours to under 15 minutes
  • Achieved consistent executive-level output across all reporting cycles
  • Enabled rapid onboarding of new data sources with minimal configuration
  • Improved reporting accuracy through automated validation and mapping
  • Freed up investment analysts to focus on portfolio analysis rather than data wrangling
