Perform® is a fixed income portfolio analysis system which combines portfolio reporting, total return analysis, and simulations into one complete package. The system models both taxable and tax-exempt bonds, such that all features of Perform® work for every modeled security type.
There are two specialized versions of Perform® : Perform® FPC - [“Perform® For Private Clients”] and Perform® FSD - [“Perform® For Securities Dealers”]. These versions contain features tailored for the private account (or SMA) market and for bond securities dealers.

Users save time collecting and fielding data. CreditScope leverages technology, linking credits to portfolio positions, enabling cross-sector analysis and evaluation of trading opportunities.
