Decode the Macro DNA in Your Equity Portfolio
Macro factors increasingly challenge equity investors' ability to generate alpha, yet remain difficult to quantify. Our MFERM solution links daily stock returns to macro factor movements, providing unprecedented clarity on hidden exposures. By orthogonalizing highly correlated factors, we deliver clearer insights into economic growth, inflation, and other key drivers affecting your portfolio. This comprehensive approach allows investors to separate macro from idiosyncratic influences, transforming complex relationships into actionable intelligence.
Full Portfolio Macro Risk Analysis
Macro factors such as real GDP, inflation, real and nominal rates are increasingly impacting indices stocks and sectors. Traditional equity style factors and thematics are also being impacted by the macro environment. Fund managers, investors and allocators now require a more comprehensive and accurate understanding of these dynamics.
