Difference from the benchmark in the glossary | Portfolio changed after the handover.

Portfolio changed after the handover in the glossary | Portfolio changed before the handover. The same measure over the three months before the manager took over, since portfolios change anyway. Portfolio changed before the handover in the glossary | Assets the manager runs. The latest monthly size of every fund the manager runs now, added up; a fund run with others counts in full for each of its managers, and the line under it counts only the funds they run alone.
