Answer from AI
In a portfolio management system, besides limits, the following logical entities are usually present:
- Portfolio — a collection of financial instruments managed by a user or organization.
- Instruments (assets) — individual securities, currencies, commodities, etc., included in the portfolio.
- Transactions — operations of buying, selling, or transferring assets.
- Risks — parameters describing the riskiness of the portfolio or individual instruments (e.g., volatility, VaR).
- Returns — profit or loss indicators for the portfolio or instruments.
- Asset classification — categories to which instruments belong (stocks, bonds, derivatives).
- Management strategies — rules or algorithms for rebalancing and decision-making.
- Constraints and rules — besides limits, there may be rules for diversification, minimum/maximum shares, etc.
These entities help structure data and management logic of the portfolio, ensuring control, analysis, and optimization of investments.
