French term
LA GESTION FINANCIÈRE PAR HORIZON EN O.P.C.V.M
French to English
Bus/Financial
Finance (general)
This is found in a pension plan. On of the options for managing investments is: LA GESTION FINANCIERE PAR HORIZON EN O.P.C.V.M
I'm struggling with "par horizon" here. I understand that it means that the funds will be invested differently based on the time left until retirement, with "arbitrages" at the end of each horizon. How would this be expressed in English?

LA GESTION FINANCIERE PAR HORIZON EN O.P.C.V.M
TARGET FISCAL/FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT/POLICY FOR/BY O.P.V.C.M
I'm assuming here that HORIZON is not the name of the entity or company. PAR HORIZON means targeted (possibly long-, or short-term) approach, as in target audience, for example. I do not know what OPCVM stands for, but you do not seem to be focusing on this, so I figure you already know it.

Sorry, there is a typo in the acronym. Should be O.P.C.V.M. as per the original.

: "Horizon" has a specific meaning in investment. Also, it doesn't say "fiscal".

If you read the notes, HORIZON is addressed. FISCAL is an alternative option, depending on the context.

LA GESTION FINANCIERE PAR HORIZON EN O.P.C.V.M
the financial management by prospects at O.P.C.V.M.
I don't know what the abbreviation 'OPVCM' stands for either but it looks like the abbreviated name of a pensions company. I checked horizon in my dictionary and 'prospect' is one possible translation from French.
Example sentence:
l'horizon économique du pays
the country's economic prospects

AllegroTrans
: OPCVM is a type of investment vehicle which would need the English acronyym and 'en' doesn't mean 'at' in this sentence

Jane has confirmed in the discussion box that she knows what the rest of the sentence means. For what it's worth, OPCVM is UCITS in English.
