Modern Risk Models

Not all investment platforms are created equal. While many rely on outdated risk models developed 50 years ago, Risk Shell analytics stand apart. Our platform integrates advanced models capable of understanding the intricacies of complex investment products, beyond the scope of traditional frameworks. Two key reasons drive Risk Shell's advanced analytics: our roots in alternative investments, starting with hedge fund risk assessment, and the ongoing collaboration with clients in our unlimited custom development on-demand program. Their input has significantly enhanced the platform, making it more sophisticated and effective.

We consistently enhance the platform by introducing new features and functions following a rigorous testing process. The roster of cutting-edge risk models includes the following:

  • Non-linear and global portfolio optimization engines
  • Factor regression models including LASSO, Ridge and Elastic-net
  • Kalman filters
  • The Akaike information criterion and Principal Component Analysis
  • Value-at-Risk frameworsks including VaR, CVaR, HVaR, and MVAR
