Risk Analytics

Investment managers must meet increasingly rigorous requirements for risk-related reporting and increased transparency from regulators and investors.

Portfolio managers and analysts depend on a clear understanding of risk factors in order to produce consistent risk-adjusted returns and identify new investment opportunities while compliance officers and senior management require an enterprise-wide view of risk. Many firms are challenged by disparate risk and compliance systems, inaccurate, or missing data feeds, and an overreliance on spreadsheets to analyze and monitor risk. This creates inconsistent risk assessments across the front and middle office that can result in regulatory sanctions and subpar investment returns.
