peer agreement (net): +1securities Explanation: Do be honest, I haven't come across a precise translation for this term, so it depends a bit on the context. For example, I had a translation recently that use "comparto" repeatedly to mean essentially the whole fund, so I generally used "fund" as a translation. In this context, I'd use securities (meaning both stocks and bonds) since it's referring to the individual investments within the fund. You could also use "assets" if that seems to fit better in the overall context. |

sectors Explanation: http://www.techtv.com/print/story/0,23102,2599479,00.html "Often in the news, we hear reporters mention the terms "market sectors" and "sector rotation." They may also mention that a certain sector is "hot" or "falling like a rock." If you're just getting started in the stock market, these terms can be very misleading." |

1 hr confidence:
sub-funds Explanation: From all the questions you've asked I assume your translating Mutual Fund Rules. I've done a few myself and in my documents "compartimenti" meant sub-fund as opposed to the whole "umbrella fund" or "fund of funds" itself. I've also seen "compartment" used by some Swiss funds. |
