Carve Outs can be created via the Sub Portfolio setup in Portfolio Data Center. A sub-portfolio, also known as a carve out, is a grouping of multiple portfolios where portions of each portfolio are filtered based on a security characteristic. The entity build process allows you to build out of cash activity records for sub-portfolios.
As an example, sub-portfolio SUBFI could be created to generate fixed income securities across the universe of portfolios identified in the build process for the sub-portfolio. The build generates the positions. The build process can generate cash activity records, based on the same build criteria identified for holdings.
The build criteria is located in the Logic Builder screen. To define the criteria for the sub-portfolio, click Define to use the Logic Builder.
To generate cash activity to the sub-portfolio, you must create a source rule to identify the source or source hierarchy that the build will use to identify and generate cash activity. If Submitting ADHOV via Portfolio Data Center, use the Cash Activity Source rule in the Submit build screen, via the Cash Activity Source Rule parameter. The build will only build cash activity records if a cash activity source rule is used. The Cash Activity Source Rule parameter is also available in Automation center when creating a sub-portfolio build event. The sub-portfolio, complete with cash activity, can then be used to calculate performance.
