Chapter II

The Quarterly Review

What changed this quarter, and why, written in short sentences that a client can read in a minute and you can edit in less.

II.1

Numbers, then sentences

For each family, Brhannivesh calculates the quarter's change in value, separates new money from market movement, and computes a time-weighted return for the family and for each member.

It then writes the result as a handful of plain sentences. "The family's wealth grew by ₹15.9 lakh, mostly from large-cap equity funds." "Equity has grown to 71% against a target of 60%." The sentences are drafted from the figures, never the other way round.

II.2

Benchmarks where they are fair

A family's return is compared with a blended benchmark built from their agreed allocation: a broad equity index for the equity portion, a composite bond index for debt, and the prevailing deposit rate for deposits.

When a comparison would mislead, for example in a quarter with large withdrawals or for a portfolio held for only a few weeks, Brhannivesh leaves it out and says why in a footnote.

II.3

Your voice, your edit

The draft is a starting point. You can change any sentence, add a personal note at the top, or switch off sections a particular family does not need. Your edits are kept with the report and in the audit trail.

You can also set a house style for the practice: how formal the language is, and whether figures are shown in lakh and crore or in full.
