Key Capabilities
Standardized erosion calculations
Your team shouldn't be using different formulas for the same problem. Use this MCP to ensure everyone is on the same page. Deploy `compute_absolute_inflationary_erosion` across your team's repo to keep the math consistent. It’s a clean way to manage financial logic.
Consistent power ratios
Building finance tools for clients requires precision and accountability. This MCP makes it easy to verify your purchasing power math. Call `calculate_purchasing_power_ratio` to ensure your app logic matches industry standards. No more disputes about how the numbers were derived.
Real return reporting
Stop guessing what your users' returns look like after inflation. Use this tool to get the real numbers every time. Use `get_real_return_percentage` to generate accurate reports. It integrates perfectly with your existing Copilot workflow in the IDE.
