Axioma has launched new interactive dashboards that enable portfolio managers and risk managers to obtain valuable insights on risk from Axioma’s enterprise risk-management platform, factor risk models and full suite of market data.

“Axioma’s intuitive new dashboards expose risk insights trapped in analytics, spreadsheets, disparate databases and static PDF reports, to drive more informed investment decision-making,” says Ian Lumb, Managing Director, Head of Risk Solutions at Axioma. “The highly customisable dashboards provide managers with clear daily risk action plans for understanding what happened, why it happened and how it has changed - both day-over-day and over longer periods of time.”
 
Axioma’s interactive dashboards utilise consistent analytics, risk and portfolio data from Axioma’s cloud-hosted analytics data warehouse, which eliminates the costly and time-consuming burden of cleansing and aggregating data. Managers can begin each day with a comprehensive understanding of their risk-return profiles, without the need to first run and merge reports or reconcile portfolios and data.
 
A key feature of the new Axioma dashboards is that the calculation engines are separate from the visualisation engine. When a user clicks to pull up a visualisation, the calculations can be complete and cached, providing an immediate view of how risk has changed over time on even the largest of portfolios. 
 
“Axioma’s new dashboards make it easy to see where your risk is coming from and to quickly drill down to identify specific sources of risk, yielding a transparent and clear understanding of all your risk issues,” adds Lumb.
