# Custom portfolios

Custom portfolios are user-defined portfolios built on top of the DiversiFi protocol, primarily for **personal use** or to be managed by a single creator/partner.

Unlike DiversiFi Strategies, which are curated by the team, **custom portfolios** are:

* created by individual users or partners,
* composed of any supported tokens within protocol constraints,
* assigned target weights chosen by the creator,
* managed by the same vault + rebalancing engine as Strategies.

Custom portfolios are generally not intended for broad public deposits by other users, but rather for a creator to manage their own specific thesis or portfolio.

## What the protocol provides

For every custom portfolio, DiversiFi provides:

* a dedicated **vault** to hold the underlying assets,
* a fungible **dToken** that represents proportional ownership of the portfolio,
* the **automated rebalancing engine** that keeps the portfolio aligned with its configured rules (e.g. drift thresholds).

The protocol does **not**:

* score or rank tokens for custom portfolios,
* validate investment theses,
* guarantee performance.

All structure (tokens, weights, rules) is defined by the creator. DiversiFi’s role is to make sure the portfolio behaves deterministically according to those rules and remains transparent and composable on-chain.
