Determining Financial Simulation Structure: Investigation of Nested Loops and Time Period Iterations

The meeting involved a technical discussion about a complex computation system designed by one of the State Changers. The discussion was focused on optimizing the system, which deals with financial calculations on tranches and on time-based intervals. The participants explored the idea of implementing nested loop structures using the "for each" technique to better manage periods and actors, where the actors represent financial instruments like tranches, and periods indicate time intervals. A challenge noted in the system was that it takes a minute to load just two tranches. The discussion also covered possible ways to handle the 'sweep', a mechanism that, depending on the ending cash balance, can affect other tranches in the system.


Keywords like 'while loop', 'tranche', 'for each', 'sweep', 'financial instrument', 'nested loop', 'period', 'actor', 'time intervals' were mentioned, but no particular technology or platform keywords like "Xano", "WeWeb", "FlutterFlow", "Zapier", and others were used. The conversation was more conceptual and methodological rather than tied to a specific technology stack.
