"Given the sophistication of our trading strategy, the key factors in selecting Quantifi Risk are industry leading analytics combined with flexibility and usability. We were impressed with Quantifi's extensive product coverage as well as the speed and accuracy of their models," states Jerry Chang, chief financial officer, Prosiris.

As a recognized leader, Quantifi provides the level of accuracy and sophistication we need to trade and effectively manage our risks. By partnering with Quantifi we now have the opportunity to focus our capital and time on our core business rather than spend time and resources developing an internal solution."
