Technology providers for advisors and investors, such as robo-advisors, portfolio management and accounting platforms, can utilize FinRiver’s simple API to run thousands of calculations on portfolios in milliseconds. Providers can instantaneously run risk and performance metrics, aggregate factor exposures, do scenario analysis and stress testing, and conduct Monte Carlo simulations – up to 700 analytical items in all.

“FinMason’s institutional grade analytics and high quality data are second to none in the industry,” said Rich Cancro, founder and CEO of AdvisorEngine, a digital wealth management platform that has been using the FinMason API since October 2016. “The FinMason API has helped AdvisorEngine to significantly enhance the service we provide to advisors. We can now deliver intuitive and simple metrics about portfolios, which is a critical element for advisors in articulating their unique value proposition. It’s an easy way to win more clients during this crucial upgrade cycle.”

The power behind FinRiver is the Algonath, a highly-scaled computational complex that analyzes over six million individual investments globally. It is a data agnostic, intelligent platform that can calculate a standard analytical payload on a 50-asset portfolio is less than 20 milliseconds.

“This is what happens when extensive investment analytical experience, including five PhDs, merge with a modern technology platform that has been purpose-built from the ground up,” Wakeman said. “Many firms will see that we can deliver better analytics faster and cheaper than can be produced internally. That means firms can upgrade their analytics and user experience at the same time.”
