kobrien@msrinvestments.comWe co-developed and partnered with S&P to develop the S&P Risk Parity Indices and have also partnered with Milliman Financial in the portfolio insurance and risk mitigation space. MSR Indices was founded to bring transparency, liquidity and customization to as many investment strategies as possible and to provide a seamless vehicle in which investors can create a custom portfolio with exposure to any combination of these strategies that they may desire. MSR Indices provides a liquid alternative to investing directly with CTA, hedge fund, and traditional long-only managers. Index investors typically prefer to control their own portfolios rather than relinquish control to outside managers. The MSR Platform allows them to do so by providing access to the widest range of risk premia’s in any one place that we are aware of. #MSR Indices #RiskPremia #RiskParity #Trend #CTA #HedgeFunds #Indices #Indexes #Futures
