• A guide to your comprehensive statement

    The Raymond James Comprehensive Statement provides in-depth information about your overall portfolio, as well as important details regarding your accounts and investments. This statement is organized to help you clearly view the details of your total financial picture and helps you track your portfolio’s progress between periodic review meetings with your financial advisor.

  • Linked account summary

    Clients with multiple Raymond James accounts can take advantage of statement linking that consolidates their information into a linked account summary. This service combines information about your various accounts into a comprehensive report. If you’d like to link your accounts, please contact your financial advisor.

    • The activity overview totals any deposits, income, withdrawals and expenses made during the statement period and calculates the difference from the previous statement so you can quickly see how and why your portfolio value changed. This statement includes information for all your accounts held at Raymond James. Accounts held away are not included. Raymond James uses a “change in value” calculation which is similar but calculated slightly differently than “net investment results” calculation at Morgan Keegan.
    • Contact information appears in the upper-right corner of the summary to help you easily contact your advisor or client services.
    • The value over time section uses a simple chart to demonstrate the historical value of your investments.
    • The asset allocation pie chart displays how your overall portfolio is allocated to various asset classes. This chart represents the asset allocation totals across the entire linked portfolio.
