Hedgebook’s valuation data feeds are updated once a day based on 5pm EST (New York End of Day) and are available in Hedgebook shortly after i.e. at approximately 11am NZT your portfolio can be revalued for the previous business day.
Hedgebook has alternative views selected from the dropdown menu at the top left of the app. On first logging in Hedgebook defaults to “Current Instruments”. The deals displayed under “Current Instruments” includes all deals that have an Execution Date equal to, or less than, the Valuation Date. If a deal has been transacted today and Hedgebook’s Valuation Date is yesterday (based on the latest End of Day valuation data) then the deal will be displayed under the “All Instruments” view.

The exception to this is where we have been legally compelled to hand information over e.g. where we are served a court order. Hedgebook will, if it is legally allowed to, communicate any such order to the client(s) it effects.
