FUND PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS

Quarterly Fund Marks

You know the status of individual positions. Here's how to use AI to aggregate them into a fund-level dashboard and pinpoint which positions drove the quarter’s performance.

AI prompts for quarterly fund marks movers
  1. Build the fund-level dashboard

A fund-level dashboard combines current fund totals with a five-quarter trend, letting you immediately see whether the current quarter continues the pattern or breaks from it.

Prepare your data

Per-holding FMV across the last five quarters and aggregate fund MOIC for the same period.

Prompt

For [fund name], build a one-screen fund dashboard for the quarter, in trend context: - KPI strip with current values: total FMV (with QoQ change), aggregate MOIC (with QoQ change), net % change, count of marks up / flat / down, name of the largest single mover - Two trend charts side-by-side: total FMV across the last five quarters; aggregate MOIC across the last five quarters. Mark the current quarter clearly. - 2–3 sentence commentary on where this quarter sits in the trajectory — is the direction the trend, or a break from it? No per-position breakdown yet.

  1. Breakdown across biggest movers

The “why” behind each mark change comes from your own judgment. Use AI to create a simple waterfall chart showing the top contributors and detractors, each with a short one-line explanation.

Prepare your data
  • Step 1's data

  • Per-holding mark change and one-line attribution per mover (from Q1 board materials)

Prompt

From the per-holding mark changes, build a contribution waterfall: - Bar 1: prior-quarter total FMV - Middle bars: each non-flat position's $ mark change, sorted by magnitude descending — green for positive, red for negative - Bar N: current-quarter total FMV - Connector lines between bars showing the running balance Below the waterfall, list the top contributors and top detractors with: position name, $ change, % change, and a one-line attribution grounded in PIQ data and Q1 documents. If a side has fewer than 3 entries, show what you have and note the count.
