ALADDIN® RISK

Aladdin Risk is the market-tested analytics engine of our tech--available as a stand-alone offering or as part of the Aladdin platform. It combines sophisticated risk analytics with quality-controlled data and highly scalable processing capabilities.

Technology, as you'd expect, pretty much underpins the investment process. So, technology is critical for us in leveraging the data that's available, allowing people to run their simulations around risk and returns in developing quantitative investment strategies to support where we are allocating the money, as well.
