Withdrawal
Question: Member requested withdrawal on Aug 6, 2021, and Club membership proposed partial withdrawal, Aug 31, 2021. Member accepted partial withdrawal on Sep 1, 2021. Partial withdrawal check dated Sep 4, 2021 and member cashed check Sep 7, 2021.

Partial withdrawal effective date and valuation date would be September 4, 2021?
What does your partnership agreement say?

So your meeting date establishes valuation date ( "...the value of the partnership as set forth in the valuation statement prepared for the first meeting following the meeting at which notice is received..."), it seems the partnership got a bit ahead of itself. When was the first meeting following the meeting at which the withdrawal notice was deemed received? You need that valuation and you need that date to establish valuation. Then you need to look at the check and see the difference between what you paid and the valuation. On the other hand, since it is a partial withdrawal, what you paid is what he got, so perhaps it makes no difference in the amount received. I would stick with the partnership valuation date, but since it was a partial withdrawal, use the partnership valuation date to establish basis and value.

Hi,
It is important to verify that all your bivio records are correct before you make any withdrawal entry.

You need to follow the terms laid out in the partnership agreement for entering the withdrawal. It should describe what to use as the valuation date and the transaction date.

Hope that helps. Contact us at support@bivio.com for any further guidance.

We've experienced in the few partial withdrawals we've had over many years that on some occassions a partial withdrawal is needed for an emergency (like lack of money).
Perhaps I am reading it wrong, but is the Partnership Agreement saying a partner would have to wait almost 2 months for a withdrawal? (Per para. 18A from Abraham)

Example.  A partner sends a request for a partial withdrawal one week after the monthly meeting (ie, say the meeting was 12/15/21 and the partner email his/her written request 12/18/21). 

The next meeting say is 1/15/22 - which would be the meeting the request would be 'deemed as received'.  

* 18A. In making payment, the value of the partnership as set forth in the valuation statement prepared for the first meeting following the meeting at which notice is received from a partner requesting a partial or full withdrawal, will be used to determine the value of the partner's account.

Does this mean the partner requesting a withdrawal would not receive payment until the February valuation statement is run?

Just trying to get clarity and determine if we need to re-word our PA.  I think our Treasurer has been paying out on based on the valuation statement closest to when the request was received, but I know it hasn't taken two months.
Thanks, Jeff

Could a Club Treasurer issue a check to a partner for a partial withdrawal before doing the calculation?
(Sort of like giving an employee an advance before payroll is calculated.)
Obviously, the w/d needs to be enough less than the partner's value that there are no anticipated issues. I'm assuming that the Partner is requesting a cash amount (say, $2000) instead of an amount based on their % ownership.

Hello.
A long term member of our club died in early December, after a lengthy illness.  He wanted to remain as active with the club as possible. We miss him.
We wrote a withdrawal check to his estate in mid December.  
In giving condolences to his widow, we asked verbally and in writing that she deposit it before the end of the year.  She did not. I called her and again asked her to deposit it.
My question is this:
Bivio will report the withdrawal from our brokerage account when it clears in 2022 (presumably soon). 
Because this will be a new tax year, must we use the 2022 date?
Or can we "edit it" in bivio to the December 2021 date we issued the check?
Thank you.

Assuming, as Linda does, that the partial withdrawal is for a set dollar amount, that's exactly what we do. The only question (which is answered by the partnership agreement) is what valuation date to use. The valuation date will determine the number of units removed from the member's account. Our PA states that in the case of a partial withdrawal, the member gets to choose the method of payment. Should the member choose stock, the other members determine which shares to transfer. Our assumption when we drafted the PA was that a member requesting a partial withdrawal probably needs the money currently and would sell any shares quickly.

The wording for timing of withdrawal payouts in the recommended partnership agreement is there to keep members from trying to time the market and make excessive withdrawal requests in a short period of time. This could be very disruptive to club operations.

Your club could certainly override this in extenuating circumstances if everyone in your group agreed, but I would not be too quick to remove it as the procedure you agree to in your partnership agreement.

A club should not be thought of as a short term cash depository by members.

The withdrawal is already entered in bivio in 2021. The check is outstanding. This is no different than balancing your personal checking account. As long as your year-end cash balance in bivio differs from your brokerage balance by the amount of the outstanding withdrawal check, there is nothing else to do.

If you want, you create a Suspense account and transfer the amount of the withdrawal from Suspense to your broker. This will make your bivio broker cash balance equal to your broker's cash balance.

Hello.
A long term member of our club died in early December, after a lengthy illness. He wanted to remain as active with the club as possible. We miss him.
We wrote a withdrawal check to his estate in mid December.
In giving condolences to his widow, we asked verbally and in writing that she deposit it before the end of the year. She did not. I called her and again asked her to deposit it.
My question is this:
Bivio will report the withdrawal from our brokerage account when it clears in 2022 (presumably soon).
Because this will be a new tax year, must we use the 2022 date?
Or can we "edit it" in bivio to the December 2021 date we issued the check?
Thank you.

Could a Club Treasurer issue a check to a partner for a partial withdrawal before doing the calculation?
(Sort of like giving an employee an advance before payroll is calculated.)
Obviously, the w/d needs to be enough less than the partner's value that there are no anticipated issues. I'm assuming that the Partner is requesting a cash amount (say, $2000) instead of an amount based on their % ownership.

We've experienced in the few partial withdrawals we've had over many years that on some occassions a partial withdrawal is needed for an emergency (like lack of money).
Perhaps I am reading it wrong, but is the Partnership Agreement saying a partner would have to wait almost 2 months for a withdrawal? (Per para. 18A from Abraham)

Example. A partner sends a request for a partial withdrawal one week after the monthly meeting (ie, say the meeting was 12/15/21 and the partner email his/her written request 12/18/21).

The next meeting say is 1/15/22 - which would be the meeting the request would be 'deemed as received'.

* 18A. In making payment, the value of the partnership as set forth in the valuation statement prepared for the first meeting following the meeting at which notice is received from a partner requesting a partial or full withdrawal, will be used to determine the value of the partner's account.

Does this mean the partner requesting a withdrawal would not receive payment until the February valuation statement is run?

Just trying to get clarity and determine if we need to re-word our PA. I think our Treasurer has been paying out on based on the valuation statement closest to when the request was received, but I know it hasn't taken two months.
Thanks, Jeff

Hi,
It is important to verify that all your bivio records are correct before you make any withdrawal entry.

You need to follow the terms laid out in the partnership agreement for entering the withdrawal. It should describe what to use as the valuation date and the transaction date.

Hope that helps. Contact us at support@bivio.com for any further guidance.

So your meeting date establishes valuation date ( "...the value of the partnership as set forth in the valuation statement prepared for the first meeting following the meeting at which notice is received..."), it seems the partnership got a bit ahead of itself. When was the first meeting following the meeting at which the withdrawal notice was deemed received? You need that valuation and you need that date to establish valuation. Then you need to look at the check and see the difference between what you paid and the valuation. On the other hand, since it is a partial withdrawal, what you paid is what he got, so perhaps it makes no difference in the amount received. I would stick with the partnership valuation date, but since it was a partial withdrawal, use the partnership valuation date to establish basis and value.

The withdrawal is already entered in bivio in 2021. The check is outstanding. This is no different than balancing your personal checking account. As long as your year-end cash balance in bivio differs from your brokerage balance by the amount of the outstanding withdrawal check, there is nothing else to do.

If you want, you create a Suspense account and transfer the amount of the withdrawal from Suspense to your broker. This will make your bivio broker cash balance equal to your broker's cash balance. When the withdrawal check is finally cashed, you will enter it as a transfer from Broker to Suspense - wiping out the suspense account.

It seems to me that not following the partnership agreement is an invitation to disaster. Think "you did it for partner A , why can't you do it for me?" You could amend the Partnership agreement, but the resignation occurred prior to any amendment . The PA is the document to which you all agreed. Follow it for now, the pain will be temporary, amend it later. However, if the powers that be at Bivio say it is ok , then it is ok.

Your club could certainly override this in extenuating circumstances if everyone in your group agreed, but I would not be too quick to remove it as the procedure you agree to in your partnership agreement.

A club should not be thought of as a short term cash depository by members.

I don't think any of the powers that be at bivio said it was ok. My statement was the closest to that - and rereading it, my statement is a bit vague and misleading. My comment was that if one of our members requests a fixed dollar partial withdrawal, we pay it immediately. There is no question what the amount is and there is no question of timing the market. The only question is how many units does that dollar amount represent? We follow our partnership agreement to determine the correct valuation date and we value the withdrawal (in terms of how many units) on that date.

This  discussion is very interesting but also has created some confusion (at least for me). In general, it had been my understanding that the transaction date always needed to follow the valuation date. If an immediate payment is made for a partial withdrawal, is this the transaction date? Even though its before the valuation date?

Or is the immediate payment a third date related to the withdrawal. Can some one outline the steps and relationship of dates if an immediate payment is made as Ira suggests.

Thanks in advance!
