Portfolio health checks

It’s important to monitor the performance of your portfolio, so that you can get a clear picture of how your investments are tracking and whether you need to take any action.

 

Share Quality Health Check

As a CommSec customer you can run a share health check to get a quick snapshot of how your shares are rated by a panel of Morningstar industry experts.

You will also receive information on whether other investors are buying or selling shares that you hold in your portfolio.

The Health Check can help you make decisions about your investments and whether you need to consider any alternative investments or strategies.

 

Share Sector Diversification Health Check

Diversification can help manage investment risk. This strategy requires you to invest across different investments, industry sectors and asset classes to help minimise volatility in your portfolio and maximise opportunity for good returns.

The Sector Diversification Health Check provides you with a quick snapshot of how diversified your share investments are across industry sectors.

The Health Check will help you determine whether you are overly exposed to particular sectors and lets you benchmark yourself against your peers and the ASX 200.
