      Our approach to regulatory risk management and investment compliance provides investors with the confidence of truly independent risk oversight, while also providing investment managers with invaluable insight into the risk profile of their European funds:

      • Risk performed without investment manager input for verifiable independence.
      • Enhanced risk oversight in the areas of scenario testing, back-testing, what-if analysis, liquidity matching and monitoring in addition to the standard requirement of VAR, sector analysis etc.
      • Assessment of the fund’s regulatory compliance with hard and soft investment restrictions.
      • Production of enhanced regulatory reporting including sample fixed income oversight reporting.

      Our proprietary liquidity risk methodology is fully compliant with European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA’s) latest guidelines.
