Bequant unveils RiskQuant: Comprehensive risk tools for asset managers and investors

Malta, 4 June 2024 – Bequant, a leading regulated institutional digital assets firm, has unveiled RiskQuant, an innovative suite of risk management tools designed to help asset managers and investors make better-informed decisions through unparalleled insights into a myriad of risk factors.

RiskQuant is a unique and free service for existing Bequant clients that provides a combination of prime services, access to liquidity, custody, compliance, and administrative tools. The service offers advanced monitoring of market risk, concentration risk, delta neutrality, risk-return ratios, Sharpe ratios, Sortino ratios, counterparty risk, and asset risk, making trading strategies comprehensible from every risk perspective. It is available to all clients of Bequant from eligible jurisdictions (excluding the US, China, blacklisted and sanctioned countries).

Bequant developed the service due to high client demand and market events such as the collapse of FTX, which signified the higher importance of risk management tools.

The suite’s main features include market risk monitoring, which keeps track of market volatility and its impact on asset portfolios. A concentration risk analysis tool that assesses exposure to individual assets or sectors and delta neutrality, which ensures portfolios are balanced to mitigate directional risk. Additionally, RiskQuant evaluates investments through metrics such as Sharpe and Sortino ratios, helping clients analyse risk-return ratios. RiskQuant includes bespoke counterparty risk management tools to monitor and manage risks posed by counterparties. Its asset risk assessment technology is designed to analyse risks associated with specific assets and market scenarios..

“This is a result of continuous work on our technology stack that covers all cycles of trading and asset management. Risk being one of the most important factors. RiskQuant allows users to monitor post-trade various risks, set thresholds, and receive alerts and insights on overall performance. We see a great future ahead for this product and look forward to helping traders gain better visibility of risk and improve returns.”
