Scenarios: ValuationData

Scenario Valuation Date

Enter in a scenario valuation date if different from current valuation date. If left blank, the system uses the current valuation date. For future valuation dates the system does not adjust the data input and so users may want to change the data and adjust this in the scenario.

Financials Assumptions are effective at the Original Valuation Date

Adjust financials if the defined financials are only effective at the valuation date in the primary basis. For example if the primary basis has a date of valuation of 31/12/2015 and the Post Retirement Interest rate is a vector of 4%, 5%, 4.5%, 5.25%, 5%.

If a scenario is set up with a new valuation date of 31/12/2016 and this option is checked, the system will adjust the Post Retirement Interest rate skipping the first rate so the adjusted vector is 5%, 4.5%, 5.25%, 5%. If this option is unchecked, the system uses the original vector.
