Default Just a few things

What is the difference between consolidated and parent figures on a balance or cash flow statement.

Are key holdings what makes up a fund .

What is the difference between a % of the fund and % of the index.

Thank you

Default Re: Just a few things

Parent Figures relate to fiancial data of the parent company only.

Consolidate Figures relate to financial data of the parent company and its subsidiaries.

Any fund is made up of all holdings, not just key holdings.

Percentage of the fund and percentage of the index should be self-explanatory.

The first one usually relates to one equity and what type of percentage that equity represents of the total fund.

The second usually relates to one equity and the perecentage as far as weighting or influence of an index.
