Aurelia dashboard view representing AI-assisted financial data analysis

Assess idle cash with backtested, AI-assisted strategies

Aurelia analyses your cash position and runs historical simulations before you commit capital. It supports your decisions. It does not replace fiduciary judgement.

The problem

Uninvested cash and manual spreadsheets both carry a cost

Most SME finance teams review cash allocation monthly, at best. Between reviews, capital sits static while conditions shift.

  • Cash reserves held in low-yield accounts for convenience, not strategy.
  • Spreadsheet models updated too slowly to reflect current risk.
  • Limited internal capacity to backtest alternative allocations.
  • No consistent method to compare strategies against a benchmark.

Methodology

How the backtesting engine reaches a recommendation

Four stages run before any output reaches your dashboard. Each stage is logged and can be reviewed.

01

Data ingestion

Bank feeds, transaction history, and market data are imported and normalised on a consistent schedule.

02

Predictive modelling

Historical patterns are tested against multiple allocation scenarios under varying market conditions.

03

Risk adjustment

Outputs are weighted against your stated risk tolerance and liquidity requirements.

04

Actionable output

A ranked shortlist is presented, with the underlying assumptions shown alongside it.

Performance metrics

Backtested returns compared against standard benchmarks

Figures below come from historical simulation on sample portfolios. They illustrate model behaviour, not a live track record.

Strategy Risk band Backtested return Volatility Benchmark (cash rate)
Short-duration liquidity model Low 4.9% 1.2% 3.1%
Diversified fixed-income blend Low–Medium 6.1% 2.8% 3.1%
Balanced multi-asset model Medium 7.4% 5.6% 3.1%

Figures are illustrative outputs from historical backtesting on sample data and do not represent actual client returns. Past performance does not guarantee future results, and all figures exclude fees and tax. Decisions based on this data remain subject to your organisation's fiduciary process.

Platform features

What the Aurelia assistant does day to day

Real-time monitoring

Cash positions and market signals refresh continuously, so allocation reviews use current data.

Automated rebalancing

When a portfolio drifts outside its set parameters, the system flags it and proposes an adjustment.

Regulatory compliance check

Every recommendation is checked against your configured compliance rules before it is surfaced.

Custom risk parameters

You set liquidity minimums and risk ceilings; the model works within those limits, not around them.

About the approach

Built for finance teams who need evidence, not forecasts alone

Aurelia was designed around a simple constraint: recommendations need a visible audit trail. Every output can be traced back to the data and assumptions used to produce it.

The platform sits alongside your existing controls. It does not open accounts, move funds, or override sign-off requirements on your behalf.

Transparency

Questions we get from finance controllers

How is our data secured?
Data is encrypted in transit and at rest. Access is limited to authenticated accounts under your organisation's permission settings. We do not sell data to third parties, and read access to bank feeds is scoped to what the analysis requires.
How long does integration take?
Most businesses connect a primary data source within one working day. Full onboarding, including risk parameter configuration and compliance rule setup, typically takes one to two weeks depending on the number of accounts involved.
Does this affect access to our cash?
Aurelia does not hold or move funds. It analyses data and produces recommendations. Any transfer, investment, or rebalancing action requires separate authorisation through your existing banking or brokerage relationships.
