5.1 Portfolio Structure
Overview of Portfolio Structure
Overall, this module - Portfolio management is designed to support energy trading activities by providing a structured way to manage deals, assets and manage risk, organize documents, and ensure that all trading activities fall within set limits and comply with regulatory requirements.
Portfolio Structure
In the “Portfolio Structure” menu the user can view all different portfolio organizational hierarchies, such as Company, Business Unit, Folder, Book, and Portfolio, in a tree-like form. Any separate deal may belong to any of the above mentioned structural levels. It is necessary for better deal organization and easier reporting.
By selecting a given level, different portfolio statistics are provided to the user in the form of pie charts that are dynamic. These statistics are organized into 5 main categories:
Deals per Counterparty
Deals per Trader
Deals per Commodity
Deals Per Direction
Deals per Transaction Year
Note: Portfolio structures are created only for the user’s own companies — not for counterparties or clients.
