| Title: | Risk management tools for the buy side |
|---|---|
| Abstract: | Whilst risk management for the buy side is similar to that of the sell side, there are significant differences. A buy-side risk management tool should be flexible enough to adapt to investment processes and be able to support a wide range of assets rather than forcing a 'one-size-fits-all' approach. UBS Delta is an award winning market and portfolio analysis tool, helping asset managers, hedge funds, banks and insurance companies manage risk across fixed income, commodities and equities. |
