The application of quantitative research and analysis methods has exploded over the last decade. While access to high performance, low-cost computing power and storage enabled this growth, ultimately it was a thirst for new and innovative solutions that drove it. Nowhere has this trend been in greater evidence than in asset management. Founded in 1998, Axioma quickly emerged as a recognized innovator. From the start, Axioma focused on flexibility. Existing portfolio-management tools often forced investors to adapt their processes and strategies to the idiosyncrasies of the solution itself. Axioma emphasized solutions that users tailored to their own investment and risk-management processes, thus empowering them to fully implement their proprietary strategies and ideas. Axioma counts among its clients nearly 200 of the world`s leading buy-side firms—asset managers, pensions and hedge funds—and offers the most comprehensive suite of portfolio-construction, risk-management and performance-attribution software and content products available in the market today. Axioma`s success reflects its history as a repeat market disruptor.
