# Allocations

### Overview

Investor accounts are used to invest in different products on the platform. By investing in the product, investor creates a allocation to it. Allocation is the actual active investment of the client.&#x20;

Client can allocate all his funds deposited to the investment account or a part of it. Therefore client can use one investment account to create multiple allocations to different funds.

All active and inactive allocations of your investors can be managed from **Broker Admin - Reports**

### Standard Allocations

Allocations are created automatically once investor decides to invest in the following modules:

* Strategies
* SMA
* Thematic Baskets
* Robo Advisory

#### Strategies & SMA

When using Strategies and SMA modules, investor starts new allocation by clicking on **Copy/Invest** button from the performance page of the selected fund.

From the moment of start allocation, all new trades opened by fund manager will be copied and opened in investor's investment account. When fund manager closes the trade, the relevant copied trade will be closed on investor's investment account automatically.

Investors have functionality to deposit additional funds and withdraw from active allocations on the go. The functionality is available from **Investor report - Allocations**

They can also stop the allocation at any time. Stopping the allocation will close all related copied trades immediately.

### Trading Allocations

Trading allocation needs to be created before investor decides to invest in the following modules:&#x20;

* Trading
* Equities
* ETFs
* Mutual Funds

&#x20;Trading allocation is an amount locked from investment account to be used for self-trading.&#x20;

Investor can create a trading allocation from main menu toolbar in the top right corner of the platform.

![](https://355209626-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-MAyzOiBTtSdMuNp2Qsw%2F-MQresQ-Acx1JUVJt-86%2F-MQrxtQX0RIHpCMcOjz1%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=5880844f-d281-46ef-870d-b99d3e916985)

Investor can allocate all funds deposited to the account or a part of it to trading allocation. Investor will not be able to use the locked amount or self-trading allocation to invest in other products and to create standard allocations.
