Dear MoneyReadyApp users,

We are pleased to announce three major updates the MoneyReadyApp.

First, as we recently added functionality for disabled users and dependents, we have now added RDSP accounts.
The amounts for grants, bonds, and repayments, are calculated in the TIME MACHINE and you will see them in the account graph and in an extra column in the downloadable Excel and .csv files.
We have also added such a column for RESP accounts, so you can see the CESGs coming in.
RDSP accounts are quite complicated. If they are at all applicable to you, we strongly urge you to read that new section in the MoneyReadyApp eBook.
A beneficiary can only have one of each RDSP and RESP accounts, which raises the problem if the account holds investments in different currencies as we allowed only one currency per account.

So second, we now allow accounts to hold investments in any currency. This was our most voted on feature in VOTES.

Last, we also allow investments to be moved to other accounts in case you want to reorganize them without re-entering them. It also makes it easy to use our Account Rebalancing tool in creative ways.

The Help pages and eBook have been updated, and we always welcome any questions and feedback,

Dear MoneyReadyApp users,

We have added a new functionality to the MoneyReadyApp. This one is for dividend-lovers. From now on, you will be able to see all dividends and distributions received, in the form of a table. It is accessible from a button below your ACCOUNTS table or your All-investments table.
This will allow you to see the changes we made to your investments and keep track of dividends.

Previously, we updated your investments with new prices and distributions only when you clicked on the ACCOUNTS and INVESTMENTS link.
But this was slow and not scalable for people with many investments.
We now automatically update everyone's investments nightly, just after we have received and processed the market data from Fundata.
This means you will no longer see the distributions as a flashed message when you click accounts and investments. The table will load much more quickly, and you can view/print or download the stored distributions.
Another plus is you will only see the "We are updating market prices, please review your accounts and investments later" very briefly, if at all.

There is a Help for this page on the Distributions table page with more details.

We welcome any questions and feedback,
