CIS and Unit Trust Data
Collective Investment Schemes (predominantly unit trusts) are a trillion rand South African industry. The pricing and dividend data of unitised funds is vital for calculating the performance figures on which the industry depends. ProfileData is an authorised statistics provider to the industry and a leading data vendor in the unit trust area.
Time-series data for unit trusts is included in ShareMagic™ ANALYST
and ShareMagic™ CORPORATE.
Performance Comparisons
ShareMagic™ makes it easy to calculate performance figures for non-standard periods.
By selecting exact start and end dates for a ShareMagic™ chart (via the X-axis object menu) you can immediately see the
NAV-NAV performance calculated automatically for that time period.
Because it allows multiple chart overlays, ShareMagic™ also makes it easy to evaluate the performance of unit trusts against the overall market, other funds or specific JSE indices. NAV-NAV performance is also calculated automatically for all overlays.
