You have been asked to manage a major portfolio in order to salvage the company and and re- align it with the strategic objectives and goals. You decided to develop the strategic documents and are currently developing the charter. As a portfolio manager, which of the following would be your answer when asked of the purpose for the development of portfolio charter?

Question

Accepted Answer

A. Execute portfolio management processes The portfolio charter formally authorizes the portfolio manager and grants the authority to apply organizational resources to execute portfolio management processes. It is the foundational document that establishes the portfolio's legitimacy and the manager's mandate to initiate, plan, and oversee all portfolio management activities in alignment with organizational strategy.

Answer

B. Authorize portfolio components Authorizing individual portfolio components is accomplished through the governance review and component authorization process, not through the portfolio charter itself.

Answer

C. Start the development of Portfolio Management plan and all of its subsidiary plan Development of the Portfolio Management Plan is a subsequent activity that occurs after the charter is approved - the charter's purpose is authorization, not plan initiation.

Answer

D. Develop portfolio structure Developing portfolio structure is part of portfolio strategic planning activities, not the primary purpose of the portfolio charter.
