The invention enables a system user to create a scenario that includes an
analysis resolution, portfolio component data and analysis environment
data. Once the scenarios are established, the system user can conduct
processing/modeling/analysis in order to optimize the portfolio
allocation data--effectively maximizing the return on the component
investments, while minimizing the risk exposure for the portfolio. In
achieving the optimization, the system can process stored user or system
defined scenarios based on a series of modeling/analysis system modules.
Further, it is possible for a system user to model, analyze and compare
multiple scenarios historically or prospectively. The system may provide
wealth outcome analysis which allows a user to determine likely long term
outcomes of a particular investment plan, while accounting for the tax
consequences of the chosen plan. In an implementation, the system is
configured to store the modeling/analysis results and generate a scenario
report. Further, the system can be configured to generate the report in a
standardized format and automatically distribute the report to designated
recipients.
