Percent of Sub-portfolio.

[aviator]

Hi Mark,

I may be mistaken but I don't think there is a field that shows a security's ending value percent of its sub-portfolio on reports.

If this field does not exist, I'd like to recommend it for a future upgrade.

Thanks.

Hi aviator,

This is available now. In a Custom report, see the field "Percentage of portfolio (ending)". It is also available in the standard Portfolio Value report. You can also add it to the Portfolio Editor using "View / List Columns..." and selecting "% of Portfolio".

Hi Mark,

The field you mentioned, "Percentage of portfolio (ending)" is over the entire portfolio.

I'll describe my situation and maybe you can help.

My portfolio is for an entire family. Mom and dad have their own separate accounts. Each child has their own separate account. Each account has a different asset allocation appropriate to the risk tolerance of each account holder.

I use the Asset Allocation report without modifications, with the following settings:
Type: Asset Allocation
Sub-Portfolio: Smith Family
Subtotal By (is checked): Sub-portfolio
Dates are YTD.

The "End %" is over the entire portfolio, not each sub-portfolio. What I'm really trying to determine is if each family member's asset allocation (by sub-portfolio) conforms to our investment policy statement with the broker. The "End %" doesn't tell me that. Currently, I believe the only way to get what I need is to run a separate report for each sub-portfolio.

Thanks,

Hi aviator,

I see... Yes, you are right, those percentages are as a percent of the sub-portfolio you're selecting to report on, so you would need to report at the account level to obtain that information. We can consider adding a new field that is a percentage of the immediate sub-portfolio, which could be different than the sub-portfolio you're reporting on.

Hi Mark,

A new field that reports the percentage of the immediate sub-portfolio would be great.

With version 12 just around the corner (assumption on my part given that we're on 11.8 now), it would be nice to see it in that release.

Fingers crossed...
