Overview
ORCA’s Holistic Balance Sheet provides a high-level overview of all assets and liabilities in one place. Instead of manually tracking data across different spreadsheets or accounts, this tool consolidates everything into a single, real-time dashboard.
The most important feature of this view is that it is perspective-driven. All values and percentages update automatically based on which entity, company, or individual you choose as your "starting point."
How it works
- Dynamic Perspective: If you view the structure from the "Top-Level Entity," you see the total value of the entire group. If you switch your view to a specific "Sub-Entity" or "Shareholder," the numbers instantly recalculate to show only that specific entity's proportional share.
- Traceable Math: ORCA traces every ownership link (direct and indirect) through the entire chain to find your true "slice of the pie."
A Simple Example:
- You own 60% of "Company A."
- "Company A" owns 50% of "Entity B."
- ORCA will show that your Effective Ownership of "Entity B" is 30% (60% of 50%).
Key Insights
- The Full Picture: View the current market value of assets, any associated debts, and the final Net Wealth (Equity).
- Liability Integration: See how loans, mortgages, or other commitments impact the overall balance sheet.
- Flexible Sorting: Organize your data with one click to see:
- Geography: Which countries your assets are located in.
- Currency: Your exposure to different currencies (e.g., USD, EUR, CHF).
- Asset Class: A breakdown by type (e.g., Real Estate, Private Equity, Cash).
How to Use the Holistic Balance Sheet
Accessing the Panel
To open the Holistic Balance Sheet, click the small triangle icon in the top-right corner of the ORCA app.
Changing the Grouping
Use the "Group By" button to reorganize the list. This is useful for identifying concentration risks, such as having too much capital in a single currency or a specific asset class.
How values are calculated
Blue River Capital Ventures owns an effective 45% stake in the PropTech Fund, valued at $28,273,237.
The PropTech Fund has a total valuation of $71.67 million. This valuation accounts for a liability of $2.75 million, which is deducted from the total. Additionally, $6.1 million of the PropTech Fund's valuation comes from its direct holdings in three assets (Sum of Assets).
Overall, the PropTech Fund represents 67% of Blue River Capital Ventures' asset allocation, making it their highest-valued position.
Tracking Liabilities (Debts)
- Activate Filters: Use the "Filters" menu at the top of the screen to toggle Liabilities on.
- See the Impact: Your debts are automatically subtracted from asset values to show the Net Wealth for your selected perspective.
- Liability Details: Any debt held directly by your chosen entity will appear in a list at the bottom. Click an item to view specific loan terms and details.
Once liabilities (loans, mortgages, commitments) are displayed in the top section, any directly held liability is shown in the wealth summary below the asset allocation. With one click, you can jump to the details of each directly held liability.
