Business Challenge

Investing is a marathon, not a sprint. Or so the old adage goes. Just as with any successful race, investing needs so much hard work upfront. Before deciding on a proper asset allocation, investors have to carefully consider lots of different factors, just as required return, liquidity needs, and most importantly, risk tolerance. For the average investor, definitions like "moderately conservative" or "aggressive" may sound confusing. They don't necessarily help. Riskalyze supports decision making by providing personalized financial reports that enable investment advisors to record a quantitative evaluation of their customers' risk tolerance. Riskalyze lets anyone invest fearlessly.

Creating meaningful products is what we do.

    Riskalyze, being one of the first biggest projects in MasterBorn, provided us with opportunities to grow and learn. As a team, we took our first steps in the FinTech industry. Riskalyze trusted us to create a brand new reporting system.

  • Cooperation icon

    Our team cooperated closely with Riskalyze's technical team (they even came to meet us in Wrocław)! A designated product owner attended our retrospective meetings, ensuring that we were always on the same page.

The Outcome

Based on the existing system that determines investment risk, we developed multiple advanced reports — graphs, summaries, statistics, etc. We took data straight from the Riskalyze system and packed them into clear and user-friendly PDF files.

What We Learned

We faced several hurdles while working on Riskalyze. First of all, it was an unusual use of React (and Puppeteer)! We also put a lot of effort into PDF conversion, because not all functionalities could be used, there were no interactive elements, and we had a lot more unexpected factors to take into account. But unpacking these challenges made us work together to come up with unique solutions.

Riskalyze was a valuable project, both from a technical and business perspective.

It was also quite a challenge, and it boosted our area of expertise.
