Unclassified Holdings TAB is described as being done on what basis?

• A. Time-based batch
• B. Done on a portfolio basis
• C. Done on an account-wide basis
• D. Done on a client basis

Answer: (D)

The main idea here is the scope of classification. Unclassified Holdings is treated at the client level, meaning you’re reviewing and classifying all holdings that belong to a single client across all of that client’s accounts. This client-wide approach lets you maintain consistent asset categorization, risk profiling, and planning for the entire relationship, rather than piecemeal classifications for individual accounts or portfolios.

If you were to think of it by time-based batch, you’d be focusing on when data is processed rather than what is being processed. If it were by portfolio, classifications would be handled separately for each portfolio, which could lead to inconsistent classifications across the client’s overall holdings. If it were by a single account, you’d miss the bigger picture of the client’s total investment picture. The client-basis approach keeps everything unified for the client’s entire holdings.
