The Fairfield Greenwich Group has chosen Measurisk as a risk analytics solution provider for its funds. Measurisk will provide Value-at-Risk (VaR), Exposure Reporting and Stress Testing measures for the Fairfield Greenwich Group's $4.5 billion multi-manager portfolio. "After a thorough examination of risk analytics solutions, we chose Measurisk as our risk service provider because of the high-end analytic capabilities they offer for a variety of hedge fund strategies, their unique outsourced technology model, and the dynamic online risk aggregation platform they offer," said Greg Bowes of Fairfield Greenwich.

Founded in 1983, Fairfield Greenwich Group's ("FGG") mission is to offer our clients superior alternative asset management funds and related products. Throughout its history, the firm has internally managed its own alternative asset funds and selectively identified external managers for exclusive affiliations, where FGG serves as a comprehensive marketing and distribution partner. FGG funds seek to deliver moderate returns with low volatility uncorrelated to broad market indices. Capital preservation and portfolio liquidity are primary objectives. For risk monitoring purposes, we obtain portfolio transparency from all managers with whom we partner.

FGG markets its funds principally outside the US to institutions and high-net-worth individuals, and provides both its clients and managers with unique and proven experience in product development, marketing support, client service, administration, and risk management and compliance capabilities. FGG provides investment services to more than 700 shareholders of record who represent thousands of investors worldwide. Fund assets currently exceed US$4 billion.

FGG is headquartered in New York, with a significant presence in London (regulated by FSA) and marketing and client service support offices at other locations in the US, Europe and Latin America.
