How do I know that Renaissance Risk Management Limited is the right consulting firm for me?
Contact us and start a dialogue about what you would like us to help you with!
Face to face (or over a socially distanced teleconference) we can quickly establish whether or not your situation is one that we are well suited to respond to.
We are a successful hedge fund at an inflexion point in our growth. Can you help us design a pragmatic and scaleable risk management infrastructure?
Building out effective controls and risk infrastructure is a common challenge faced by successful hedge funds as their AUM grows.
Our holistic approach to understanding your firm, coupled with our extensive experience of what works in the real world makes us well placed to help in this important stage of your firm's growth.
Can you please describe your "holistic approach"?
When things go wrong in a firm it is often easy to see some highly visible symptoms but harder to diagnose the underlying root causes of the issue.
An effective solution requires understanding and addressing the root causes rather than papering over the symptoms.
In addition the solution has to be right in the context of the firm's ambitions and constraints.
We aim to understand all these dimensions before we advise our clients on potential solutions.
Can you advise our board risk committee on "what good looks like"?
We are very happy to advise board level executives and non-executives on risk management best practice.
We can review the structure, attendance and materials for the risk committee.
We can also independently review the capabilities and gaps in the organisations risk management apparatus and advise on remediation.
How do you customize your services for each client?
We don't have any standard solutions or tied in products we try to sell.
We work with you to understand the current state of the organisation and the ambitions to move forwards.
We can advise on high level strategy through to detailed tactical level implementation.
The final deliverables are uniquely tailored to your requirements.
Our risk team are struggling to balance regulatory compliance with adding value to the business. Can you help us?
This is a very common problem!
There are a number of ways we can help including repositioning the culture of the team, rethinking operational efficiency and repurposing regulatory deliverables as value added risk management tools that help the business.
