S&P Capital IQ Launches Portfolio Risk Solution

Available on the S&P Capital IQ desktop, the product brings together leading risk and portfolio analytics acquired through last year's purchase of R2 Financial Technologies and S&P Capital IQ's market and reference data. The integrated data and analytics platform gives users the ability to use interactive portfolio dashboards to aggregate data or drill down to fundamental financials and research, enhancing understanding of impacts of potential changes on P&L at an actionable level.

"In just over a year since our acquisition of R2 Financial Technologies, we have successfully brought together rich data, sophisticated analytics, and relevant market commentary, news and analysis," says Lou Eccleston, president of S&P Capital IQ. "The result is that our clients can quickly generate a transparent, fully customized risk picture enabling them to react quickly to changes in the market and to new investment ideas."
