Axioma, Qontigo’s analytics business and a global provider of factor risk models, portfolio construction tools, and enterprise risk solutions, has expanded its partnership with Equity Data Science (EDS), to provide hedge funds and asset managers with access to its Equity Factor Risk Model Suite.
The partnership comes as EDS says its hedge fund and asset manager clients are seeking to enhance risk management practices amid fast-moving and increasingly complex market conditions. The company says that by leveraging its suite of equity models, clients can better understand exposures and sources of risk in their equity portfolios, to drive data-driven portfolio construction decisions and deliver enhanced risk reporting to stakeholders.
Through Axioma’s open architecture approach, the partnership integrates the entire suite of Axioma Equity Factor Risk Models, which provide insights into drivers of portfolio risk and return. Updated daily and with historical coverage going back to 1997, the suite meets EDS client demand for fundamental, statistical and macroeconomic factor risk models, delivering a timely and intuitive set of views, across a variety of geographies and time horizons.
The addition of Axioma Equity Factor Risk Models to the EDS platform follows a successful earlier agreement to enable the distribution of data sets from Qontigo partner, SDI AOP – the asset owner-led platform that offers a taxonomy for investing in the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
