Portfolio-related queries

The WMACCESS database comprises several millions of instruments, currently about 3,563,000 of them are active, living instruments.

A query for corporate actions like earnings payouts, capital measures or conversions with limitation to a measure-dependant date like ex-or payable date, conversion or subscription period hence also detects data sets of instruments that are neither in your portfolio, nor do they require a particular monitoring. The portfolio-related query function enables the optional limitation of the search results to instruments which were deposited by the user in the so-called portfolio groups or portfolio lists and thus provides a considerably increased efficiency.

Fields of application of portfolio-related queries

Applications are manifold, including:

  • Query of upcoming income data (dividends)
  • Query of upcoming conversion events, e. g. mergers or liquidations of funds
  • Query of upcoming capital measures
  • Query of corporate actions, e. g. via the query profile Corporate Actions in wmProfile
  • Query of upcoming drawings and cancellations, final maturities
  • Query of upcoming general meetings

Maintenance of portfolio lists (Upload ISIN, WKN)

The functionality of portfolio-related queries is represented by the optional module wmPos. The scope of wmPos includes the following functions:

  • Set up and maintenance of individual portfilio groups (portfolio lists). Using various portfolio groups can e. g. separate the instruments of the proprietary trading from instruments of the depot-B business.
  • Upload of any number of instruments, identified by ISIN or WKN, e. g. by copy and paste from an excel file.
  • Adding and deleting of individual instruments.
  • On request we provide you with a FTP access in order to carry out a daily automatic update of the portfolio groups.

Active portfolio groups

In the event of several portfolio groups all instruments contained in a portfolio group allocated to the user are considered by Default in a portfolio-related query. The user can deactivate individual portfolio groups for a subsequent query at any time and thus limit the search to the instruments of the active portfolio groups.

Maintenance of active portfolio groups with the 'Amend' button.

Activation / deactivation of portfolio groups.

After saving, only the instruments of the active portfolio groups are considered in a portfolio-related query. This screen can therefore remain open in the background in order to easily and quickly select another combination of portfolio groups or instruments for the next query.
