Investor Relations Assets & Shareholder Invites

When a company uses the Findex IR Portal to manage its investor relations, it can invite you directly as a shareholder. This means you don't need to add the investment yourself — it shows up in your portfolio automatically once you accept the invitation.

Getting invited as a shareholder to an IR Asset

An IR asset is a special type of investment in your Findex portfolio that is created and managed by a company through the Findex IR Portal. Unlike regular assets that you add and update yourself, an IR asset is controlled by the company you've invested in — giving you an accurate, up-to-date view of your shareholding without any manual effort.

Performance, Metrics and Insights

Findex automatically calculates key financial metrics to help you understand how your portfolio is performing. This article explains exactly how your net worth, portfolio value, return on investment, and diversification numbers are computed — so you always know what you're looking at.

Understanding Portfolio Calculations

Net Worth

Your net worth is one of the most important numbers in your financial life, and Findex calculates it for you automatically. It represents the difference between everything you own and everything you owe — giving you a clear, honest picture of your overall financial position.


Understanding Net Worth

Graph and Snapshots

The Net Worth Graph gives you a visual timeline of how your financial position has changed over time. Instead of just seeing today's number, you can track the trend — whether your net worth is growing steadily, fluctuating, or heading in a direction that needs attention.

Understanding the Net Worth Graph

Portfolio Structure

If you hold investments through a company — such as a holding company or an investment vehicle — Findex lets you set up an ownership hierarchy to reflect that structure. By assigning an owner company to your assets, you can organize your portfolio the way it actually works in practice, with parent-child relationships between entities.

How to set owner company

Co-Investment & Shared Assets

Sometimes an investment isn't yours alone. Whether you've gone in on a property with a partner, co-invested in a startup with friends, or share ownership of an asset with family members, Findex lets you track shared assets and your specific ownership percentage. This way, your portfolio reflects exactly what you own — not just what the whole investment is worth.

What is co-investment / shared assets?

Connecting Accounts & Integrations

Connecting your bank or brokerage to Findex is the fastest way to build your portfolio. Once connected, your holdings, account balances, and liabilities are imported automatically — no manual entry needed.

How to Connect Accounts with Providers

Findex connects to 50+ banks, brokerages, and trading platforms so you can automatically import your holdings and get a complete view of your portfolio.

Supported Banks and Providers

Provider sessions do not last forever. For security reasons, your bank or brokerage may require you to re-authenticate periodically. When a session expires, Findex can no longer sync your data until you reconnect.

How to Reconnect Expired Sessions with Providers

If you no longer want Findex to sync data from a particular bank or brokerage, you can disconnect that provider at any time. Disconnecting stops all future data syncs for that connection.

How to Disconnect Connected Provider Accounts

Once you connect a bank or brokerage to Findex, your portfolio data is kept up to date through regular syncs. Here is how syncing works and what to expect.

Understanding Data Sync Frequency

What Data is Accessed (Privacy)

Investor Relations Portal

Cap Table

The Cap Table in Findex gives you a clear, up-to-date view of who owns shares in your company and how ownership is distributed. Whether you are managing a handful of founders or a growing list of institutional investors, the Cap Table is your single source of truth for shareholder data.


Cap Table & Shareholders

Adding shareholders to your cap table in Findex is straightforward. You can invite them by email, assign their share count, and categorize them by type -- all in a few steps. Once invited, shareholders can access the IR Portal and view the information you have made visible to them.

How to Invite a Shareholder

Shareholder details can change over time -- a funding round may adjust share counts, an investor might change category, or you may simply need to correct an entry. Findex makes it easy to update any shareholder's information directly from the Cap Table.

How to Edit a Shareholder

When a shareholder exits your company -- whether through a buyback, full share transfer, or a correction -- you can remove them from the Cap Table in Findex. Deleting a shareholder removes their record from the active cap table and recalculates ownership for all remaining shareholders.

How to Delete a Shareholder

Share Ledger

Getting your share ledger up and running on Findex is the first step toward transparent, organized shareholder management. This guide walks you through the initial configuration so you can start tracking share transactions right away.

How to Setup Share Ledger

Shareholder Permissions

Not every piece of information needs to be visible to every shareholder. Findex gives you granular control over which IR widgets your shareholders can see, so you can share exactly what you want -- nothing more, nothing less.

How to Limit or Hide IR Information for Shareholders

Documents

Findex gives you a central place to store and manage all the files related to your investments. Whether it's a property deed, stock certificate, loan agreement, or tax document, you can upload it directly to your Documents section and keep everything organized in one place.

How to upload a document?

Findex automatically generates system folders for your assets and companies, but sometimes you need your own folders to organize documents your way. Custom folders let you build a personal filing structure inside the **Documents** section so everything is exactly where you expect it.

How to create a custom folder?

When you add assets, liabilities, or companies to your Findex portfolio, the platform automatically creates dedicated folders to store related documents. These are called "system folders", and they help you keep files neatly tied to the right investment without any manual setup.

What is a Findex system folder?

A well-organized document library saves you time and makes it easy to find what you need, whether you are reviewing a tax filing or sharing a shareholder agreement. This guide walks through practical tips for keeping your Documents section in great shape.
