Great West Management Efficiency

Great West's management efficiency ratios could be used to measure how well Great West manages its routine affairs as well as how well it operates its assets and liabilities.
Great West Lifeco has accumulated 435 M in total debt with debt to equity ratio (D/E) of 25.3, indicating the company may have difficulties to generate enough cash to satisfy its financial obligations. Great West Lifeco has a current ratio of 11.67, suggesting that it is liquid and has the ability to pay its financial obligations in time and when they become due. Debt can assist Great West until it has trouble settling it off, either with new capital or with free cash flow. So, Great West's shareholders could walk away with nothing if the company can't fulfill its legal obligations to repay debt. However, a more frequent occurrence is when companies like Great West Lifeco sell additional shares at bargain prices, diluting existing shareholders. Debt, in this case, can be an excellent and much better tool for Great to invest in growth at high rates of return. When we think about Great West's use of debt, we should always consider it together with cash and equity.

The ability to find closely correlated positions to Great West could be a great tool in your tax-loss harvesting strategies, allowing investors a quick way to find a similar-enough asset to replace Great West when you sell it. If you don't do this, your portfolio allocation will be skewed against your target asset allocation.

This measure is expressed in what is known as the correlation coefficient, which ranges between -1 and +1.
