Here’s a quick wrap-up of changes we’ve made in January and February as we continue to action insights from advisers and develop core features on CFS Edge.

Progressive cash withdrawals on sell transactions

You can now access funds from managed accounts more quickly by initiating a sell transaction. Effective from Monday 16 February, CFS Edge now progressively moves cash from a managed account sell transaction into the main cash account as individual asset sell downs occur and cash becomes available.

 

For clients with buy investment strategies in place, you’ll need to pause these before initiating the sell transaction to prevent the cash being automatically reinvested.

 

One-off cash withdrawals

If you don’t need to access the cash quickly, you can complete a one-off cash withdrawal as you do today.

 

If you’re completing a one-off cash withdrawal for a super or pension account and selecting a managed account as part of the sell, you’ll need to pause any reinvestment strategies for the client before initiating this transaction.

 

Later this year, we’ll make additional enhancements to the withdrawal process.

 

Running cash balance

We've reinstated the running cash balance on the cash transaction screen, allowing you to easily track the cumulative cash position without relying on external reports.

 

Performance reporting

We've reverted a recent change so that the default reporting display is of performance results before fees and tax.
