Glossary entry (derived from question below)
French term or phrase:
appréciation économique
English translation:
economic appraisal / economic assessment
French term
appréciation économique
So far the second half of the translation reads:...the qualified investors listed below that hold shares in the ICVC for third parties...
What is meant by "selon une appréciation économique"? Is this some kind of economic appraisal or appreciation in value?
Any suggestions will be very welcome!

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.
How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:
An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)
A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).
Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.
When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.
* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

My reading is that it means that fund managers will be paid commission in proportion to the investments they hold on behalf of third parties.
valuation
The French adjective 'économique' is superfluous in English. You can just put valuation.
There are synonyms for 'valuation' in english: "assessment, appraisal, etc.", but the term 'valuation' is always used in professional finance relating to to investment instruments.
