Features:
- Imports and exports portfolios in standard file formats such as Excel, CSV, or XML;
- Offers a wide range of graphical construction and reporting capabilities;
Benefits:
- Supports a wide range of analytics including : Volatility, Tracking Error, systematic and specific decomposition, Betas and correlations, total and marginal risk contributions, etc.) as well as value-added indicators (TaR®, implied return, etc.);
- Allows access to in-depth risk attribution, beta analysis, and position-level risk indicators.
APT offers a wide range of APIs that allow you to easily integrate APT into your internal or third party systems.
They scale from embedding APT in user-generated spread-sheets
for a single user to enterprise-wide deployments supporting
through-puts of tens of thousands of portfolios. These APIs allow
Investment Risk Manager analytics to be called directly within
your applications.

Portfolio Construction
Risk Reporting
One of the key elements of the APT offering is portfolio construction and rebalancing through optimization.
The APT optimizer enables users to find the best trade-off between risk and return when managing their portfolio. The user can focus on identifying sources of alpha and selecting their investment preferences, while the APT optimizer uses risk models to ensure that risk constraints, whether imposed by regulators or the investment firm itself, are fully respected. This rigorous process is applied both to asset allocation and stock selection and can be combined with other portfolio construction methods within subjective strategies.
The APT optimizer is based on modern, efficient algorithms to provide rapid solutions to portfolio construction problems, even for large and highly complex portfolios.
