French term or phrase: à la JV

Line item in financial statements:

"Actif financier à la JV par résultat"

No more context than that, I'm afraid! I can't even tell you the type of company as it is a template for financial statements in a software package.

at fair value through profit and loss

Explanation:
You've clipped a set phrase. The full term is a unit of IFRS jargon, and this is the English equivalent. Accept no substitute.

Notes to answerer

Asker: Thanks Alliison! Yes, I did ask the client (no response - deadline tomorrow so I'm going to have to make a decision). There are no other instances of this in the document. I'm going with juste valeur - instinct, really. There is no other context than a list of possible line items that might appear in an annual financial statement generated by this software package. juste valeur seems to fit better with the general tone of the French used. Thanks anyway!
