LONDON, March 13, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- StatPro Group plc (AIM: SOG), the AIM listed provider of cloud-based portfolio analysis for the asset management industry, today announced that on March 7th it released version 62 of StatPro Revolution to all clients. This release marks the first update of 2015 to the cloud-based platform. Developing for the cloud allows StatPro to create updates more frequently than traditional software and clients do not have to go through an upgrade process or costly IT project.
Version 62 now supports market values as import data allowing a more accurate weight and return to be calculated. This provides additional flexibility alongside the existing quantity based holdings data and the security weights and returns option. This new version also supports switching from current data models to the new data model to preserve historical performance.
We have also updated the Portfolio Admin section to make it easier to create and edit portfolio settings. It's also easier to browse and sort larger number of portfolios using the new portfolio picker screen.
This upgrade also enables multiple NAV series data imports for a single portfolio. This provides additional flexibility for portfolios containing multiple share classes for example.
Dario Cintioli, StatPro Managing Director commented, "these latest enhancements focus on the usability of StatPro Revolution enabling our clients the flexibility they require. We have also been preparing the system for additional risk analysis functionality including migrating to a new StatPro Risk API service that will perform many risk calculations on behalf of StatPro Revolution. This important work will allow us to accelerate the development of advanced risk analytics including relative risk and risk factor decomposition during 2015."
