Schematic layout of a portfolio structure

Object	Icon	Description
Holder		The custody account holder (client). Owners are predominantly seen as customers with address information and details of their tax situation. The holders can in turn own securities accounts, accounts and portfolios. These can be evaluated individually or collectively.
Portfolio		The portfolio is the central entity within the Infront Portfolio Manager. You can create securities accounts and accounts in the portfolio and thus also map more complex portfolio structures.
Account		The account is used by the Infront Portfolio Manager to book cash movements for securities purchases and sales or other account movements. Before you create a custody account for a holder, you must have created at least one account for them. An account can only be assigned to one portfolio at a time.
Depot		All securities holdings are managed in the custody account. Every purchase and sale is logged and is available for control purposes at any time, even after the position has been closed out. You assign a standard settlement account to custody accounts. A securities account can only be assigned to one portfolio at a time.

Owners, accounts, securities accounts and portfolios can be addressed within the Infront Portfolio Manager using freely selectable designations, e.g. their own names, abbreviations or (if your clients value anonymity) code names.

You can manage any number of securities accounts, accounts and bookings with the Infront Portfolio Manager. The number is only limited by the storage space on your hard disk.

To keep an overview of your portfolios, you should think about the names and classification of your portfolio items before you create them.

To buy additional units of a security already in the securities account, simply drag it onto the securities account while holding down the mouse button. The "Purchase" dialog box opens and the security is already displayed. You can also drag a security that is not yet in the custody account onto the custody account in order to buy it.

To sell a security in the securities account from the Explorer, select it and press the <ENTF> key or select the REMOVE command in the context menu of the selected holder. The "Sales" dialog box opens in which you can enter the data.

In the Infront Portfolio Manager, you can combine any securities account holders into groups.

There are also numerous other options available to you: Create depot filters that compile depot objects according to individual criteria, use Asset allocation and the associated "Asset monitoring" evaluation to monitor depots according to your risk appetite, and adjust your depots to any model depot using automatically generated order lists in portfolio rebalancing.
