The article offers the approach of forming an investment portfolio at the company engaged both in external and internal investment. The company development projects (internal investment) and other companies’ securities (external investment) are considered to be investment values for investing the company’s own funds. The choice of investment objects is carried out based on the utility function. The utility function is based on the criteria of maximization of the investment yield and the degree of impact of an investment object on strategic development, and minimization of the investment risk.

This decision support system is a part of the Enterprise Performance Management Systems, which are designed to provide information and analytical support to processes of the company strategic management.
