Model Development

Our Development Process

Our research and development methods are fully transparent. We follow a rigorous, disciplined approach to concurrently documenting our work, which also includes design and construction successes, and dead-ends.

We enjoy creating automated, controllable processes that save resources and allow for easy validation and future ETL.

Why We Are Effective

Given the uncertainty and the general lack of strong or overwhelming evidence for much financial and economic modeling, our robust approach provides corroborating evidence, giving comfort that the selected alternatives are sound. The best thing about that is it’s not much extra work, just a better, more thoughtful, more organized approach.

Short Term Benefits: Leads to more comprehensive and organized outputs and reporting.

Long Term Benefits: Ability to reuse and repurpose code and model functionality for other projects and portfolios.

We have built models in all key areas of management, as well as crucial models in finance and accounting.
