Skill: Decompose AUM growth
A bull market can hide an organically shrinking practice (§3 #1 #7).
Step 1 — Set the AUM bridge
Beginning AUM, ending AUM, net new flows, withdrawals.
Step 2 — Separate flows from market
AUM growth − net new flows = market via riaops_calc.py aum-revenue (§3 #1).
Step 3 — Compute organic growth
Net new flows ÷ beginning AUM — the real health metric (§3 #7).
Step 4 — Read it against market
Strip market; organic growth is what survives a drawdown (§3 #7).
Output
An AUM bridge separating net-new-vs-market with the organic growth rate. Traverse Tree 1 in the decision-trees file.
