When rebalancing a portfolio, you have the possibility, in addition to removing existing positions, to add securities or products:
- Via simple security add-on,
- Via Universe lists, and
- Via Model portfolios.
Simple Security
Under Add Security / Product, you can add specific securities and products from your list. Simply type the security you want to add and select it to add it to the list. The securities are taken from the item list (My Account – Company – Securities / Products).
You can also add new securities from the new proposal page: type the security you are searching for and, if it does not exist, select Create new security / product. This will open a new window enabling you to create a security.
Suggest
The button suggest enables a list of featured security. There you can include "red star" securities which your company pushes as investment. When selecting a security, you will be asked in which currency do you want to buy the security:
- Security currency
- Reference currency
- Cash account of your choice
This will impact the cash balance as well as the cash accounts, if applicable.
Featured: In order to name a security as featured, edit the security under my Account – Company – Securities and toggle the Featured toggle.
Universe list

Once a universe list is selected, simply search for the securities using the Add Security / Product button.
Universe lists are manageable under my Account – Company – Universe Lists.
Portfolio models
Under Model Portfolios, you are able to select which model you want to apply to your investment proposal. Once applied (Apply button), a model automatically generates securities and the corresponding allocations depending on the initial balance of the portfolio.
In order to modify and create model portfolios, follow My Account – Company – Model Portfolios.
Allocations and requirements
Once the securities are added, you can modify the allocation by selecting the quantity, the price, or the percentage allocation. Just remove the allocation or record a 0 for securities you want to exclude from the proposal (or select Remove – three dots button on the right of the security).
You can add comments on any security by clicking on the three dots button next to it and selecting Comments. You can decide to submit your proposal or save it as draft for further review.
