---

monteplan models accumulation and decumulation with realistic taxes, multiple spending policies, multi-asset correlated portfolios, and professional reporting. Use it as a Python library, CLI tool, or interactive Streamlit web app.

Features

• Monte Carlo Engine -- Vectorized numpy simulation with monthly time steps and deterministic seeding
• 4 Return Models -- Multivariate normal, Student-t (fat tails), historical block bootstrap, Markov regime switching
• 5 Spending Policies -- Constant real, percent-of-portfolio, Guyton-Klinger guardrails, VPW, floor-and-ceiling
• Tax-Aware Withdrawals -- US federal progressive brackets, LTCG rates, RMD enforcement, configurable withdrawal ordering
• Multi-Account Support -- Taxable, traditional (401k/IRA), and Roth accounts with distinct tax treatment
• Guaranteed Income -- Social Security, pensions, and annuities with COLA adjustments
• Stress Testing -- Market crashes, lost decades, high inflation, and sequence-of-returns risk scenarios
• Sensitivity Analysis -- One-at-a-time tornado charts and 2D heatmaps with parallel execution
• Antithetic Variates -- Variance reduction for tighter confidence intervals
• Glide Paths -- Age-based target allocation shifts
• Investment Fees -- Expense ratios, AUM fees, and advisory fees as monthly drag
• Streamlit App -- Interactive web UI with Plotly charts, scenario comparison, and CSV export

Example Output

Quick Start

Python Library

from monteplan import simulate, default_plan, default_market, default_policies, default_sim_config

result = simulate(default_plan(), default_market(), default_policies(), default_sim_config())
print(f"Success probability: {result.success_probability:.1%}")

CLI

monteplan run --paths 10000 --seed 42

Installation

Install from PyPI:

pip install monteplan

Or install from source:

git clone https://github.com/engineerinvestor/monteplan.git
cd monteplan
pip install -e ".[dev]"

Architecture

monteplan separates computation from presentation:

• Engine (src/monteplan/) -- Pure Python package with no UI dependencies
• App (app/) -- Streamlit web UI that imports the engine as a library
• Plugin-style models -- Return models, spending policies, and tax models are swappable via protocols

See the documentation for the full user guide, API reference, and mathematical details.
