valuation remnants - Details


  • Key Concepts: Valuation remnants are the residual amounts that remain after a valuation process has been completed. This process is used to determine the value of a financial product, such as a loan or security. The valuation remnants are the difference between the current market value of the product and the amount that was originally invested in it.
    How to use it: Valuation remnants are used in the Accounting for Financial Products (AFP) component of SAP’s Financial Services Business Application (FS-BA-PM). This component allows users to track and manage their investments in financial products, including loans and securities. The valuation remnants are used to determine the current market value of a product and can be used to inform decisions about whether to buy or sell a particular product.
    Tips & Tricks: When using the AFP component, it is important to remember that valuation remnants can change over time. As such, it is important to regularly check the current market value of a product and adjust your investments accordingly. Additionally, it is important to remember that valuation remnants are only one factor in determining the value of a product; other factors such as interest rates and market conditions should also be taken into account.
