Luxembourg quote

Questions about updating prices or transactions in Fund Manager

Postby jmm » Sat Jul 23, 2016 3:08 pm

Hi, now that Bloomberg quotes for funds has been dropped, I cannot find any other alternative that gives me quotes for funds quoted in Luxembourg (and there are plenty). If I cannot find a solution, I will have to drop usage of Fund Manager altogether.
Any suggestion?

Hi jmm,

Have you tried looking up your fund on one of the Morningstar XX - Funds quote servers or the new FondsCheck quote server? I believe they both have Luxembourg funds. See:

https://www.fundmanagersoftware.com/int ... ingstar-BE

and

https://www.fundmanagersoftware.com/int ... FondsCheck

If you can't find the funds you need, please provide me the name and ISIN of a sample fund you aren't able to find.
Thanks,
Mark

Hi Mark,

Hi Mark,

thanks for the info but how do I find the Morningstar symbol, I cannot see it anywhere?
Also it means that the historical price will not work...

Hi jmm,

Visit the Morningstar BE website to look up the "id" value used by Morningstar BE for your fund, and enter this as the symbol in Fund Manager. For example, if you enter your ISIN (LU0282880003) in the search box, and then click on the EUR priced version, you will see this page:

http://www.morningstar.be/be/funds/snap ... F00000VSRG

This is the address, shown at the top of your web browser. It isn't in the page itself, it is at the top of your web browser where the address of the page you're viewing is shown. That is where you'll find the value for the "id". In this example it is:

F00000VSRG

This will get you the most recent quote, but yes, unfortunately you can't get historical quotes with this quote server. You can however get historical and current prices using the new FondsCheck quote server instead. For this server, you would use the symbol of:

120902992

for this fund. You could then get both current and historical pricing. For instructions on using this quote server, see:

https://www.fundmanagersoftware.com/int ... FondsCheck

which will explain how to find the "secu" value for your funds. This is the 120902992 in this example.
Thanks,
Mark
