A Cure for the Flaw of Averages

Prevailing risk management techniques often produce more smoke than light. This seminar presents Dr. Savage's radical new approach to consolidating risks across an industry, enterprise or stock portfolio. It is based on the DIST™ Distribution String, developed in collaboration with SAS Institute, Oracle Corp., and Frontline Systems.
Dr. Savage is assisting Royal Dutch Shell, and Merck & Co in applying it to investments in R&D projects. In addition, Morningstar has begun to explore its use in financial portfolios.

You will leave this course with both a working knowledge of these methodologies and the software to begin applying them on your own.
