Smarter client reporting with Uscan

Date: 26 October 2022

Preparing for client reviews is now easier

Popular with the adviser community, our Uscan tool is used to produce over 200,000 reports each year. We've built on the strengths of Uscan to create a new, fully integrated client report, helping you:

  • demonstrate the incredible value of your advice
  • save time within your business
  • support more meaningful discussions with your clients

Add value to your client service proposition

Our Uscan tool provides a rich source of data for analysis of individual assets, portfolios, existing and proposed investments. We have built on this capability, introducing a number of key enhancements.

Our new Uscan 'transactional report' includes:

  • Valuations at the start and end of the reporting period
  • Money in and out of your client's account, plus a money-weighted return measure
  • Up to five years of transaction and performance data on each account
  • The value of your client's account over time versus net payments
  • Time-weighted returns
  • The ability to add your own commentary to the report
  • Summary of adviser fees, discretionary portfolio fees and Quilter's charges during the reporting period

The report can be produced in a long and short version.

Powerful portfolio analysis

In addition to the new Uscan report you can produce portfolio, single fund and new business reports. Allowing you to benchmark the performance of your own model portfolios, for analysis and to market the success of your own portfolios to your clients.

Understanding money weighted/time weighted returns

  What does it measure? How can you use it?
Time-weighted returns Investment performance, taking into account;
  • the values of all of the underlying assets
  • income, such as interest and dividends
  • any fees and expenses that have been incurred.
It strips out the effects of adding or removing capital.
  • To benchmark against other comparable investments.
  • To demonstrate how your advice has benefited your client, where you have not had control over the timing of contributions and withdrawals.
Money-weighted returns The rate of return of a client’s portfolio that includes the size and timing of adding and/or removing capital (i.e. deposits and withdrawals).
  • To measure progress towards a specific investment goal.
  • To understand your client’s actual investment experience.
  • Not applicable for benchmarking against comparable assets.
