Overview
Model Portfolios contain predefined Investment Options for a superannuation plan.
Each plan can include multiple Model Portfolios, and each Model Portfolio can hold one or more Investment Options.
Model Portfolios are used to define standard investment allocations that can be applied consistently across member accounts.
