Net Asset Value (NAV)

A portfolio's NAV (Net Asset Value) is a key metric to gauge a portfolio's evolution as time goes by.

The metric is the sum of all assets (securities) of the portfolio minus the liabilities at any given time. The assets are the sum of all positions' market value, cash components, and provisions. This metric gives the user a bird's eye view of the NAV evolution through time.

It is very useful when building charts to analyze the evolution of the portfolio's value over time.

The Net Asset Value (NAV) of a portfolio is a key metric for tracking its progress over time. This measure is obtained by subtracting the portfolio's liabilities from the sum of all its assets at a given moment. The assets take into account the cumulative market value of all positions, cash elements, and provisions. Thus, NAV provides an overarching perspective of the portfolio's development over time.

This metric proves especially handy when creating charts to visualize the portfolio's value evolution.
