SkyRank rewards a hedge fund that proves, through steady positive returns, its ability to exploit market inefficiencies, independent of stock and bond market direction. It rewards managers who are tenured through experience and who have successfully proven to satisfy and attract investors.

Over 13 interconnected formulas are utilized through a unique optimization process that analyzes hedge fund inputs to derive linear and quadratic equations. Some of the inputs used to derive formulas are assets under management, time, volatility and returns. The linked formulas are then used to calculate output components and the quantitative Absolute SkyRank Rating. Unlike other hedge fund sorting technologies, Absolute SkyRank ranges between 0 and 5, and has a precision that goes out 16 decimal places. This means that it is possible for two hedge fund ratings to differ by more than one-hundred-trillionth of a point. The SkyRank Rating successfully identifies established, credible hedge funds exhibiting high risk-adjusted returns, unavailable in the traditional marketplace.
Although not a substitute for appropriate and extensive due diligence, the SkyRank System allows for a simple rating to be revealed to the the investor in three forms: Absolute SkyRank, Lettered SkyRank, and Relative SkyRank. The SkyRank System successfully finds and rewards hedge funds that perform the way they are supposed to: by understanding a market inefficiency and hedging away specific market risk associated with that market segment. The ability of the SkyRank System to do this provides unique applications of the System to the hedge fund industry.

SkyRank utilizes a complex algorithm to reveal a simple rating to the investor in three forms: Absolute SkyRank, Lettered SkyRank and Relative SkyRank.
Absolute SkyRank
|
- Rates hedge funds quantitatively.
- Limits the rating and measures numerically on a basis of 0-5.
- Compares hedge funds with 0 as the most attractive rating, and 5 as the least attractive.
|
|
Lettered SkyRank
|
- Simplifies the rating into a lettered form.
- Rates hedge funds in the form, A-E, with A as the most attractive rating, and E as the least attractive.
|
|
Relative SkyRank
|
- Displays the percentage relative attractiveness of a hedge fund when compared to others in a database.
|
|
The SkyRank System analyzes the hedge fund industry to reward HEDGE Funds, those that are established, credible, and consistent exploiters of market inefficiencies.
