Credit Union – Securities Listing by Category

What is a Securities by Category Report? Securities Reports are considered portfolio analysis tools and are used by investment managers and analysts to analyze market- and book values of different security categories. Some of the main functionality in this type of report is that it is parameter driven and for any select group of securities it displays book- and market values as well as variances between these. The security categories are listed in the rows. Across the columns you find: Book value and its yield and life metrics, market value with yield and life metrics, and variances between book and life metrics. You find an example of this type of report below.

Purpose of Securities by Category Reports Credit Unions use Securities by Category Reports to analyze book- and market value KPIs and variances. When used as part of good business practices in Investment- and Finance departments, a company can improve its securities strategies and profitability, and it can reduce the chances that a lack of easy on-demand reports reduces the ability to make faster and better decisions.

Who Uses This Type of Report? The typical users of this type of report are: Investment managers, securities portfolio managers, analysts. Other Reports Often Used in Conjunction with Securities by Category Reports Progressive Investment- and Finance departments sometimes use several different Securities by Category Reports, along with securities transaction reports, investment dashboards, KPI dashboards, securities dashboards and other management and control tools.
