Quantitative Portfolio Optimizer (UK)

Since Markowitz published his "Portfolio Selection" on Journal of Finance in June 1952, diversification has been regarded as the only free lunch in financial markets. However, due to the complexity of the portfolio optimization process, not many people could take the full advantage of diversification until now.

Applying the latest BI technology and mobile tablet, we are proud to bring the asset allocation tools to iPad with the Quantitative Portfolio Optimizer (QPO). With QPO, users can rapidly construct a desired optimized portfolio in minutes, rather than days, based on users’ individual return requirement and risk tolerant. Once the targeted portfolio is set, users will be guarded by the auto-pilot buy/sell order suggestion module to keep their portfolio in control regardless of the market movements.

Have your portfolio checked with QPO, and enjoy your free lunch now ! For details, please check out our demo movie.
