Fee and margin regulations in the Infront Portfolio Manager
The parameters for the charges and margin requirements to be calculated (e.g. those of your bank) are defined collectively in the form of a named "order" in the "Charges and margin order" dialog box.
Enter the desired designation in the "Order name" field above or select an existing model from the list.
Parameters for the margin calculation
| Parameters | Description |
|---|---|
Margin factor | A factor by which the calculated Eurex margin requirements are multiplied to obtain the final margin. Banks sometimes demand a higher margin than Eurex itself, e.g. factor 2. |
Parameters for calculating expenses
| Parameters | Description |
|---|---|
Fixum | Basic amount incurred for each order. |
Pro contract | Contract-related share of the fees, i.e. an amount payable per converted contract. Per contract is equal to 0 if the bank only settles based on turnover. |
Commission rate | Sales-related share of expenses, i.e. what percentage of the purchase or sales price is to be paid. The commission rate is 0 if the bank only settles on a contract basis. |
Minimum | Minimum expense amount in the event that fixed salary plus variable component is below this minimum. |
After entering all parameters, save the order model with the "Save" button.
