Generate customized hypothetical illustrations

	Create customized hypotheticals using securities from multiple investment universes—funds, stocks, exchange-traded funds, variable annuity/life subaccounts, separate accounts, hedge funds, offshore funds, money markets, and indexes
	Support strategies and recommendations with multi-dimensional FINRA-reviewed presentations

Use the Hypotheticals tool to illustrate how recommended portfolios would have performed historically. For each portfolio, it’s possible to customize taxes, fees, investment amounts, and schedules. Morningstar hypothetical reports highlight a security’s historical performance in isolation, in comparison with competing funds, or in the context of its contribution to the overall performance of a portfolio. They are the only reports in the industry to incorporate underlying holdings to show performance with relevant asset allocation, sector weightings, and style diversification information.

Easily convert research into clear, concise communications to share with clients. Present in-depth investment strategies and strengthen customer relationships. The research area contains the Morningstar Market Barometer
