This module verifies timely and fair allocation of trades across like portfolios AND detects if favoritism (e.g. "cherry" picking) has occurred. FTT scans the holdings of all similar portfolios, as determined by the client, and compares the holdings percentages of the portfolios against the "like" group overall (e.g. holdings dispersion) and flags any exceptions. Accounts/portfolios are usually grouped by investment objective or mandate, strategy, model, etc. The functionality also includes detection of outliers or missing positions and alerting of same. Tolerance or threshold levels, or both, are determined by the client.
