Maples Fund Services has expanded its middle office capabilities with the launch of risk reporting for asset managers and institutional investors. This offering will enhance the ability of investment teams to gain insight into drivers of portfolio performance and to achieve superior risk-adjusted returns.
The risk reporting offering builds on Maples Fund Services’ leading middle office solutions, tailored by teams of industry experts and information technology professionals to meet clients’ specific requirements. Proprietary technology developed by Maples Fund Services aggregates portfolio and market data from multiple sources, renders resultant risk metrics on an online dashboard, and produces customisable reports.
“Our clients have expressed demand for an intuitive risk reporting solution that can contextualise and interpret risk in a way that caters to their distinct needs,” says Tyler Kim (pictured), CIO of Maples Fund Services.
By making data easy to interpret at multiple levels of abstraction, Maples Fund Services’ bespoke dashboards enable investment teams to understand and attribute sources of portfolio risk, and drill-down into underlying data to investigate causal factors. The solution offers standard risk measurements such as VaR, Sharpe ratio, information ratio, correlation analysis, a graph of the efficient frontier, factor analysis, as well as tools for scenario and sensitivity analysis. Specialised measures can also be developed in concert with clients to reflect their proprietary risk management frameworks.
“Asset managers and institutional investors can leverage the expertise of our middle office professionals coupled with our flexible technology to produce individualised risk reports that integrate seamlessly into their investment decision making processes,” says Scott Somerville, CEO of MaplesFS.
