Allocation Strategy, a London-based analytics platform for institutional investors, has raised £1.6m.
The platform offers analytics across the allocation process and is used by investment teams to evaluate risk and return trade-offs, test portfolios across different market conditions and ultimately improve the resilience of a portfolio.
“Portfolio decisions are more complex than ever, and institutional investors need stronger tools to understand risk and build resilience over time,” said Pavol Povala, chief executive of Allocation Strategy.
“Allocation Strategy is designed to give investment teams a clearer analytical foundation for asset allocation decisions – supporting everything from expected return inputs to scenario analysis and portfolio construction.”
The funding round was led by Fuel Ventures.
“Allocation Strategy is tackling one of the biggest challenges in investing today: making confident allocation decisions when portfolio construction is becoming more complex and macro conditions are shifting faster than many traditional tools can handle,” said Mark Pearson, founder of Fuel Ventures.
“The team brings exceptional domain expertise from operating at scale inside one of the world’s most sophisticated investment organisations, and they’ve translated that experience into a platform that’s genuinely useful for investment teams.”
