by Stephanie Stefanovic, Content Manager, Sharesight | Jul 19th 2022

Sharesight’s portfolio tracker allows investors to track over 180 stocks and ETFs on the Athens Stock Exchange (ASE), with automatic dividend tracking and daily price and performance updates. This is in addition to our existing support for other key markets such as the London Stock Exchange (LSE), New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), Nasdaq and over 40 other leading global markets. With Sharesight’s extensive market and broker support, investors from around the world can effortlessly track all their investments in one place, while taking advantage of powerful performance reports, dividend tracking and tax reporting features.

Athens Stock Exchange

What is the Athens Stock Exchange?

Founded in 1876, the Athens Stock Exchange is the stock exchange of Greece. It is often referred to as the ASE or ATHEX. There are five markets operating in the exchange, including the regulated securities market, regulated derivatives market, alternative market, carbon market and OTC market.

Why investors should track their ASE investments with Sharesight

With Sharesight, investors can easily track the price and performance of stocks listed on the Athens Stock Exchange alongside investments across multiple global markets, brokers and asset classes. By consolidating all of their investments in Sharesight, investors gain a portfolio-wide view of their investment performance, benefitting from daily price updates for the ASE, plus advanced reporting designed for the needs of self-directed investors. In addition, Sharesight’s annualised performance calculation methodology gives investors the complete picture of their portfolio returns by calculating the impact of capital gains, brokerage fees, dividends and foreign exchange rates on performance.

Track dividend income from ASE stocks

Unlike other portfolio trackers, Sharesight automatically tracks dividend and distribution income and includes this information when calculating your investment return. In the screenshot below for example, dividends make an important contribution to this stock’s returns, highlighting the value of a portfolio tracking solution that includes more than just capital gains in its performance calculations.

Run powerful performance reports built for investors

For investors who want a more detailed breakdown of their portfolio’s performance, Sharesight offers a range of powerful reports including:

  • Performance: Calculate your total portfolio returns over any selected period.

  • Diversity: Discover how the assets in your portfolio are diversified across different investment sectors, investment types, countries and markets.

  • Contribution Analysis: Measure the impact of your holdings and asset allocations on your overall portfolio performance.

  • Future Income: View announced dividends and interest payments expected for investments in your portfolio.

  • Multi-Currency Valuation: See the value of your holdings denominated in the currency of your choice.

  • Multi-Period: Compare your portfolio returns over different time frames to see the impact of time on your performance.

Calculate the impact of ASE investments on your portfolio’s returns

In the screenshot below, you can see the Contribution Analysis Report (sorted by market) being used to assess the ‘weight’ of various markets in a Greek investor’s portfolio. This would be particularly useful for an investor looking to compare the relative contribution of their ASE investments to the total return on their portfolio, for instance.

In this example, the ASE is the most significant contributor to the portfolio’s value, constituting 64% and €10,605, followed by the LSE at 22% and €3,682. The report also includes a detailed breakdown of each individual holding’s returns, classified by market.
