Laporte software is designed to help you select investment managers, including CTAs and hedge fund managers, by allowing you to review fund managers' track records. The software allows you to subset and rank investment managers by a variety of quantitative and qualitative criteria. For example, you can produce a list of managers with social concerns and then rank those managers by the size of their largest drawdown. Once you have created an interesting list of managers, you can then research these managers using various statistical and individual attributes, such as the managers' Sharpe ratios, their fees for services and why they think they are qualified to manage your money in the first place. Assuming this process goes well, that you have found a few managers you like and that you are an investment professional, you can then use LaPorte to design and edit reports to send to clients and prospects.
