What is PORTFOLIO ANALYTICS?

PORTFOLIO ANALYTICS (PORT) function allows you to create your portfolio.

Its primary function is to create and maintain portfolios, which can be analysed in related functions.

Please be aware that when creating a portfolio, you are not adding securities to the portfolio but only creating the basic parameters that define the portfolio (e.g. Portfolio Currency, Asset Class). Once a portfolio is created, securities can and must be added.
