Moving funds to another portfolio within IE

Hello All
In my DIY portfolio I have several funds
the 2 with the largest allocations were bought at a time when
the prices were a lot higher and have not come back in the intervening period.

The rest of them are doing quite well due to me knowing a bit more about what i am doing now as compared as to then.

My question is can i create a new DIY portfolio and move the 2 troublesome funds into it and then set up a drip feed to auto invest in them and leave me to DCA the rest of them.

Thanks

My understanding is no, you canā€™t move investments from one portfolio to another. You would have to sell, move the money to the new portfolio, and re-buy, exposing you to the spread.

Iā€™m pretty new to the whole DCA thing - arenā€™t funds that have experienced a big drop exactly the sort you should be cost averaging? Buy them now while theyā€™re cheap to get your average purchase price down?

Hi @woodside , @TBrailles is correct. Currently you are only able to move funds as cash across portfolios. We do hope to introduce in-specie transfers for internal transfers but we can not give any timeframes for that.

@PaulGichemi, are you looking at this or not?

Three years Iā€™ve been asking for this and related functions, always told ā€œitā€™s comingā€ (particularly hiding unused/empty portfolios). It seriously canā€™t be hard for a company such as IE to make such minor adjustments to their all features, especially after some of the dud features theyā€™ve launched (like the unnecessary and non-hidable ā€˜cashā€™ elements).
Please, for the love of your customers - deliver on some of these simple promisesā€¦
