Main benefits

Cost reduction

Cost reduction

60% reduction in transaction costs, minimizing tracking error and operational risks. For asset managers running a synthetic, basket-based replica, we compute that basket for you: in tests against the method one European retail banking asset manager was already using, this cut annual transaction costs by 58%.

Personalization

Personalization

Full customization according to your needs: ESG criteria, sector preferences, tax considerations, liquidity restrictions, etc. Portfolios are built with the EU's 5/10/40 concentration rule in mind from the start, so results are ready for real fund constraints.
