Bus/Financial - Finance (general)
Spanish term or phrase: carteras
This is from a description of a financial application for the BlackBerry.

"...la posibilidad de acceder a contenidos de las carteras que tenemos en nuestro portfolio."

and

"La funcionalidad de portfolio permite que podamos acceder a una cartera, incluidas las columnas que son parametizables...".

As far as I know "cartera" is "portfolio". My research leads me to believe that "portfolio" here is the actual name of the feature, so I'm not sure how to deal with this other than translating both as "portfolio", which doesn't sound especially snappy.

Any ideas out there?

Thanks in advance!

The "Portfolio" functionality / portfolio


Explanation:
Para destacar de algun modo lo que es la aplicación/funcionalidad, sería conveniente que lo pusieras entrecomillado y luego, cuando se hable de las carteras, lo pones sin entrecomillar. Saludos

wallets


Explanation:
a portfolio made of several wallets doesn't sound bad... otherwise you can use generic names such as "project" or "item"

folders


Explanation:
You're right about cartera being portfolio. The Spanish text shouldn't use the English word portfolio at all. But it does. So my suggestion is that inside the portfolio you can find folders, which are like mini portfolios.
