OpenMetrics Solutions, Zurich - Cooperation with Picard Angst

Zurich, 22.02.2017. Since January 2017 OpenMetrics Solutions LLC provides its advanced market risk indicators to Picard Angst Ltd.

OpenMetrics Solutions LLC and Picard Angst Ltd. have signed an agreement to use the advanced risk indicator technology from OpenMetrics to actively manage risk and exposure of the SEDI (Stabilized European Dividend Income) fund.

OpenMetrics risk indicators allow an early identification of different market regimes and provide concrete risk levels in order to adjust portfolio exposure accordingly. The main advantage of OpenMetrics risk indicators is the excellent timing quality, whereby risk signals are generated much faster and more accurate than most of the methodologies currently used in the financial industry.
