Macro Risk Advisors is a financial services firm based in Rye, New York, that provides market risk analysis and trade execution services for institutional investors. It offers market intelligence to reveal trading opportunities and help manage portfolio risk, collaborating with clients to interpret the risk landscape and generate actionable ideas across strategies such as equity long/short, macro, credit, and volatility arbitrage. On the execution side, the firm provides access to a diverse liquidity pool and uses sophisticated trading approaches to execute large orders efficiently. Its agency platform is staffed by former derivatives traders from large banks, with a focus on volatility risk and superior execution, and the business avoids proprietary trading risk to align with client interests. It positions itself as an extension of clients' investment processes and pursues long-term partnerships; a notable recent development is the February 2023 launch of Ironsides MRA Institutional led by Barry Knapp.
