Axioma, a leading provider of enterprise risk and portfolio management solutions has announced that the French investment manager boutique UBS La Maison de Gestion will deploy Axioma Risk as their enterprise-wide risk management solution. Axioma Risk is a cloud-based multi-asset class risk system offering both analytics and data in a single platform, streamlining the investment process.
 
“As a wealth management specialist, UBS La Maison de Gestion manages more than 2,500 client portfolios, so it was important that they found a partner that could not only handle their large number of portfolios, but also one that could support the diverse range of strategies and instruments they are invested in,” said Alexandra Billon, Executive Director, French-speaking Europe, Axioma. “Axioma Risk enables a very high level of portfolio holdings and risk analytics storage capacity. It offers a high scalability while producing risk reports as its performance depends more on the number of distinct instruments processed than on the total number of holdings. We were able to provide that level of sophistication required by UBS La Maison de Gestion.”
 
Axioma’s flexibility – not only in terms of data natively available, customized risk reporting and analytics, but also in terms of service delivery – was another key driver for selection. “As we continue to grow our business, we need to deploy our resources in the most efficient way,” said Johann Rivalland, Deputy CEO, UBS La Maison de Gestion. “Axioma took on a high touch, hands on approach, working directly with our different custodians to ensure that our portfolio positions – across both our private mandates and funds management activities – could be fed directly into the Axioma Risk system. Thanks to this piece of intensive work, we can focus on the core of our business, which is managing assets for our clients, while keeping control over the process.”
 
Axioma has seen positive momentum this year having celebrated its 20th anniversary and the launch of axiomaBlue, a ‘no compromises’ cloud-native environment that provides fully interoperable and integrated access to Axioma’s suite of best-of-breed solutions. “It’s an exciting time for Axioma,” said Nicolas Rossignol, Managing Director, French-speaking Europe. “We’ve recently won a number of industry awards for Axioma Risk, but when we can partner with clients like UBS La Maison de Gestion to come up with solutions to positively impact their businesses – those are the real wins.”
