HedgePlatform Community

    • An Application
      • RiskManager Investor Reporting is an investor reporting application available exclusively to hedge fund members in the HedgePlatform Community free of charge.
    • A Report Design Tool
      • RiskManager Investor Reporting is an interactive report design and creation tool based on the same methodology, analytics, and data as RiskManager.
    • Run Reports on Portfolios
      • RiskManager Investor Reporting allows hedge funds to run reports on monthly portfolios loaded by RiskMetrics.
    • Share Risk Information Securely
      • Member funds can share risk information securely with specified member Investors for aggregation, compliance reporting, and portfolio construction.
    • Send Reports Directly to Investors
      • Member funds can send reports directly to investors inside or outside of the HedgePlatform Community.
Hedge Fund members who subscribe to the full RiskManager application have additional options to leverage the HedgePlatform Community infrastructure for investor reporting.

A few examples of hedge funds utilizing the HedgePlatform Community infrastructure for purposes of investor reporting are as follows:

  • Share position-based portfolio (RML) to be used in an Investor’s interactive RiskManager account, but limit the granularity available to the Investor.
  • Share fund-level Monte-Carlo or Historical simulated to be used in an Investor’s Portfolio Pilot application.
  • Share position-based portfolio (RML) to be used by RiskMetrics to run standard or customized reports on behalf of an Investor (including RIC, Basel II, UCITS III).
