WEST PALM BEACH, FL (www.hedgeco.net) – — AlternativeSoft AG, creator of the HFOptimizer platform for fund of funds construction, announced today that a new release is available, for 30 days freetrial. This is already the third release within 2005.
HFOptimizer platform has solved three issues that should be of interest for hedge fund investors. First, it is possible to construct a fund of funds by minimizing, not only volatility, but also the extreme negative risks. Second, it is possible to rank the hedge funds by mixing a quantitative model and a qualitative model. Third, it is possible to forecast the hedge fund index returns using economic factors.
This new release especially includes a model that combines an academic quantitative hedge fund rating model with a qualitative hedge fund rating model based on the inputs of the hedge fund analysts.
Introduced in June 2004, HFOptimizer is now tested by over 130 clients around the world. HFOptimizer�s full suite of services allows to rate hedge funds quantitatively and qualitatively, optimize the fund of funds and portfolio with hedge funds, simulate the fund of funds, stress test the fund of funds, compute the hedge funds equilibrium returns and forecast the hedge fund index monthly returns.
