Portfolio monitoring is essential for commercial real estate (CRE) investors, developers, operators, venture capital, and investment portfolio companies. It informs decision-making, identifies potential risk factors, and tracks the performance of a portfolio.
With portfolio monitoring, investors can make data-driven decisions to ensure maximum performance by tracking key metrics and performance indicators (KPIs) such as returns, market values, cash flow, and expenses.

Let’s dive into the key differences between portfolio management, monitoring, and intelligence — a new category designed to make optimizing the health of your portfolio simpler than ever before.
Portfolio management is the larger umbrella category and involves all activities meant to optimize the health of your CRE portfolio. This may include any of the following functions: loan servicing, analytics, payments tracking, draws for construction, regulatory compliance, etc.
Portfolio monitoring falls under the category of management, but focuses specifically on ongoing maintenance activities. It involves tracking and analyzing an existing portfolio’s performance over time. This allows investors to understand how their portfolios have been performing and adjust when necessary to reach their financial goals.
Geared towards ongoing monitoring of current loans, portfolio monitoring does not necessarily involve actively managing or selecting investments. Instead, it provides investors with insights into their investment decisions by tapping into a series of metrics that can be used to interpret performance and create strategies for improvement.
Portfolio Intelligence is a new category of portfolio monitoring that brings the conventional process into the modern age. Blooma’s Portfolio Intelligence suite automates critical activities included in traditional monitoring and couples it with dashboards and functionality that allows for deep real-time analysis.

When looking for the right portfolio intelligence system, it’s essential to consider various factors, such as the following:
What types of investments and financial instruments can the system track? Does the system provide detailed reporting capabilities with customizable timeframes? Does it allow users to view performance over multiple time intervals? Can the system integrate with existing accounting software?
How often is data updated, and how accurate is this data? What are security measures in place to protect confidential user information? Is there a maximum number of portfolios that can be monitored at once? Are there any fees associated with using the system?
Are additional features being developed to improve the usability or accuracy of data? Could new integrations be added in future updates that would benefit users?
Does it fit into your organization’s technology stack? Will there need to be any changes made for it to integrate seamlessly with existing infrastructure and processes? Are there any conflicts between systems that could create difficulties down the line?
