Portfolio with Holdings
This page allows you to manually add a portfolio held
outside Northern Trust. The asset and its market value will appear on
the Financial
Summary page with your Northern Trust accounts.
You can enter a description and other optional information
about the portfolio, as well as details about the portfolio's holdings.
These may be stocks, mutual funds, bonds, options, or other. If you enter
the quantity, cost, and market value, gains or losses will be calculated
for you. For stocks or mutual funds, if you enter the quantity and ticker
symbol, Passportfolio® will automatically update the market prices each
night using end of day market prices.
| Tip: |
If you have online access to your
banking, investment, brokerage, or credit card accounts at other providers,
you can use Passportfolio® to automatically access these accounts in Private

each night. For more information, see How
