Portuguese term

Carteira

Portuguese to English Bus/Financial Accounting
I am translating from Brazilian Portuguese and am struggling a bit with the term "Carteira" in the context below:

Para as duplicatas de exportação é alterado o portador para carteira 10 (carteira duvidosa), devido ao
fechamento de câmbio que nem sempre ocorre no vencimento informado na duplicata, e por isso seu valor não
pode ser considerado para o planejamento financeiro. A cobrança é efetuada em carteira;

Duplicatas are Trade Bills, right, but would you say "carteira" is portfolio? It just does not seem to make sense to me..

Any help appreciated!

David Hollywood Aug 4, 2017:
this is one of these questions that is totally valid and asker should wait for further input
Mario Freitas Aug 4, 2017:
I didn't check the 15 pages to see if at least one entry would help, but I'm sure the asker didn't either. It's obviously easier to post the question again. But well, I guess she has the right to do that.
David Hollywood Aug 4, 2017:
I did suggest "portfolio" as an option but not at all convinced in this particular context
David Hollywood Aug 4, 2017:
I don't think we should jump to conclusions and proz refs here
David Hollywood Aug 4, 2017:
maybe but the asker has a good point that "portfolio" mightn't cut it in this context
Mario Freitas Aug 3, 2017:
Tem nada menos do que 15 páginas desse termo no ProZ!

portfolio

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portfolio_(finance)
The term portfolio refers to any combination of financial risk such as stocks, bonds and cash. Portfolios may be held by individual investors and/or managed by financial professionals, hedge funds, banks and other financial institutions. It is a generally accepted principle that a portfolio is designed according to the investor's risk tolerance, time frame and investment objectives.

Note from asker:
Thank you Gilmar! Would you then consider that "A cobrança é efetuada em carteira;" sould be "The collection is made in portfolio"? I saw some entries that talked about "on hand" "directly", could that make sense, what do you think? Thank you a million, I very much appreciate the help. I didnt realize that you had answered because it was my first time using the website and the notifications were ok. Sorry about that!

I agree that "portfolio" is probably not the best way to go but it is nevertheless plausible at a stretch

I would say "operations in arrears" in your context

Thank you so much for the answer, I did look into the other entries in ProZ but was not totally sure since nothing matched this specific context. I really appreciate the help. ;)
