Wilshire Equity Analytics is pleased to announce the next release of the Wilshire AtlasSM equity analytics system.
The Wilshire Atlas Version 11.0 (“Atlas v11”) includes a number of significant new enhancements to the user interface, improving the flexibility and general “ease of use” of the system both for experienced and first-time users. Furthermore, the multi-factor risk and attribution functionality of the system has been expanded to allow users to perform flexible decomposition of risk and return contributions into any user-defined grouping scheme within the system.
The risk and factor attribution modules both also have been expanded through the addition of a number of new reporting features, including new security detail and linked-period analysis reports. In addition, a new HTML reporting format has been added to the system. Reports built using this format exhibit increased levels of interactivity and, using this format, it is possible to construct group-based attribution reports in the Wilshire Atlas with full “drill down” capability.
Beyond these developments to the basic system, the reporting capabilities of the Wilshire Atlas have been enhanced with the development of a Microsoft Excel® plug-in associated with the Wilshire Atlas API (both require an additional subscription), which gives users access to the core analysis functions of the system via custom cell functions from within a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet. In this way, it is possible to build fully customized reports without needing to code new Microsoft Excel macros.
