About · author and research program
Conrad Gann
Quantitative researcher and builder focused on making portfolio risk decomposition operational: variance attribution, hedge ratios, subsector exposures, and model-governed reporting surfaces for allocators and portfolio managers.
Research focus
Measurement
Replace broad labels with decomposed variance shares and factor lineage.
Execution
Translate orthogonalized betas into ETF hedge ratios and reproducible workflows.
Governance
Keep model outputs auditable, explainable, and tied to explicit data windows.
RiskModels.org
RiskModels.org is the public research and methodology layer for the RiskModels ecosystem. It hosts the primer, research articles, reference map, and educational decomposition workspace. Product surfaces for API access, SDKs, CLI workflows, and model operations are intentionally separated at riskmodels.app.
Institutional posture
The writing style is deliberately narrow: define the measurement problem, show the math, state the edge cases, cite the lineage, and point to reproducible tooling. No performance claims, no black-box alpha narrative, and no marketing claims where a decomposition table would be more precise.
