Rebalancing

Which households have drifted from their policy, and the trades that would fix it.

Rebalancing in SigmaPointPi
/verticals/wealth-management/rebalancing

Drift is measured against each household's own target allocation and its own tolerance bands. A five percent drift matters in a narrow band and does not in a wide one.

Proposed trades account for tax, because a rebalance that generates unnecessary gains costs the client more than the drift did.

How to work this page

Read drift against the band, not the target

The band is what triggers action. Trading to exact target on every small move generates cost with no benefit.

Check taxable accounts separately

Rebalancing in a tax-deferred account is free. In a taxable one it realises gains, so the sequencing differs.

Use cash flows first

Contributions and withdrawals can rebalance without any trade at all. It is the cheapest correction available.

Review before executing

Proposals are proposals. Wash sale exposure and holding periods are flagged on the trades that carry them.

Every figure from the desktop appears here, stacked rather than reduced. Tables scroll inside themselves so the page never moves sideways, and figures keep their separators and their alignment at every width.

Questions people actually ask

How often should this run?

On breach rather than on a calendar. Calendar rebalancing trades when nothing needs it and misses breaches between dates.

Does it handle tax loss harvesting?

Opportunities are identified with the wash sale window checked against recent activity across the household.
