What are NAV and unit pricing?
NAV (net asset value) is the value of a fund's assets less its liabilities, and the unit price reflects the NAV per unit on issue. Registry Direct calculates NAV and sets unit prices in line with your fund's structure and valuation policy, reconciled against your registry.
