DEDICATED PORTFOLIO
A passive form of portfolio management that involves the matching of future cash inflows with future liabilities. The process of dedicating a portfolio may be used as an alternative to multiperiod immunization, which reduces the level of interest rate risk to which a portfolio is exposed. An example of a dedicated portfolio strategy could involve a pension fund that will begin making payment distributions to plan members in five years' time.
