Software helps detect good and bad managers

Chris Flood from The Financial Times talks about MPI’s technology, its ability to reverse engineer hedge fund returns and applications from fund selection to managing risk and detecting potential fraud. “MPI’s software provides valuable insights into how a hedge fund delivers returns. It can help an investor understand whether a manager is adding value. If some parts of returns are left unexplained, it can be a way to raise warning flags, especially when combined with other sources of information,” he quotes a risk officer of a sovereign wealth fund.
