neutral  Hans G. Liepert: Vermögensbuch ist im Deutschen eher ein Begriff des kommunalen Haushaltsrechts, als "Portfolio" eines Fonds habe ich bisher noch nicht gefunden

  -> According to my dictionaries( financial) Vermögensbuch is shown as asset book, vermögenswerte as the assets themselves. Maybe you could clarify the dictionary definition for me as a future reference?
