Client Testimonials

MPI Stylus Pro is easily the most powerful tool available for returns-based analysis and peer group comparison. It is fully equipped for the specific challenges of hedge fund analysis, including leverage, short positions and limited length of track records. In combination with its extensive automation capabilities, MPI Stylus Pro has allowed us to use one single environment for all the quantitative analysis needed, without having to make any adjustments to our processes.

Marcuard Family Office has used MPI Stylus Pro for more than 10 years and was able to benefit from the improved functionality and usability during this time. The outstanding support and flexibility in the system to customize output fulfills the needs of our families – these are key reasons why our organization chose MPI as a partner. Moreover, the architecture of MPI Stylus Pro provides seamless integration not only in our information technology environment, but also in our workflows, which results in high efficiency and a high level of quality. I can recommend MPI as a company and their software to every organization that requires a reliable and competent partner whose focus is on solutions and supports its clients in an extremely proactive manner.

As a large U.S. Public Pension Plan that is constantly evaluating current and prospective external asset managers, we have found MPI Stylus Pro to be central to our performance evaluation and risk monitoring analytics. Stylus Pro's flexibility and dynamic analytical engine allows us to customize reports to suit our needs for both long only and absolute return portfolios. Customer support has not only been available to answer our questions, but has helped to highlight the advanced functionality in Stylus Pro to improve our processes. Whether we are producing reports for our Board of Directors or performing market research, Stylus Pro's institutional-quality platform delivers.

Our firm is a registered investment advisor and our niche clientele is professional fiduciaries (trustees, conservators and guardians) who must comply with prudent investor laws. Those laws generally require the fiduciary to diversify the investment of his client s assets and manage risk, as well as return. Stylus is the first and, to date, only tool that has enabled us to effectively employ the principles of Modern Portfolio Theory to develop diversified equity portfolios with historic risk of loss ranging between that of intermediate-term and long-term bonds, yet with five-year returns in the teens. As a direct result of the applications Stylus has made possible for us, we have become nationally recognized experts in fiduciary investing and sought-after speakers at state and national fiduciary conventions. Stylus has made us who we are today.

Stylus has proven to be a very powerful and flexible analytical tool that provides outstanding output, limited only by the user's imagination. Stylus allows us to share perspectives on our own funds with both clients and prospects, and allows us to gain valuable insights into our competition as well. We have been very pleased with the product and MPI's support.
