Outsourced
Risk Office.
Your institutional risk function, without building one in-house.
Fat Tail provides an institutional-quality external risk office for investment managers. We deliver the senior risk expertise, quantitative analytics, portfolio oversight, monitoring, stress testing, reporting and governance normally expected from a sophisticated internal risk department.
WE RUN YOUR RISK OFFICE.
Not software. Not a dashboard. A department.
