Hedgeco.net-New York, February 20, 2007– Investor Analytics LLC, a leading risk analysis and risk management specialist to the hedge fund industry, today announced significant additions to its suite of risk services that reflect the company’s strong connections to innovative research. The new offering comes on the heels of an expansion of Investor Analytics’ research team, enabling faster deployment of new and future advances in risk management and portfolio management.

“Investor Analytics is committed to staying at the forefront of the field,” said Damian Handzy, Chairman and CEO.  “We accomplish this through our own original research, our relationships with academic researchers, and our ongoing review of published research results.  Our financial engineers are uniquely qualified to understand, vet and implement those ideas that are both useful and practical,” said Mr. Handzy.  “Risk management tools will continue to advance in the coming years, and Investor Analytics will ensure that they meet the growing needs of institutional investors like pension funds and endowments,” he added.

The risk measures available in Investor Analytics’ services now include Expected Shortfall, which goes beyond the industry standard Value-at-Risk (VaR) measure and predicts how much the assets might actually lose by examining worst-case losses in greater detail.  “In other words, while VaR helps determine a portfolio’s risk, Expected Shortfall goes further to assess what the expected loss may actually be – a far more meaningful piece of information for traders and portfolio managers,” said Mr. Handzy.

The emergence of risk management as a rigorous field of academic study at major universities has led to several breakthroughs in ways to determine market risk and expected losses, with many practical applications for hedge funds.  With its growing research arm, Investor Analytics is well positioned to study and apply these advances and, by doing so, to raise the bar in risk services for the alternative investment industry.
