Northfield Information Services is a financial services firm that provides risk forecasting and analytics to support risk management for investment portfolios. Founded in 1985 and based in Boston, with offices in London and Sydney, it serves more than 200 asset managers and asset owners worldwide. The company emphasizes bottom-up, granular modeling of individual instruments and positions, and constructs risk-factor models intended to span markets in an economically meaningful and statistically robust way. Its framework distinguishes three horizons: a short horizon with daily risk scores for solvency and regulatory concerns; a midterm horizon for portfolio decisions and performance measurement; and a long horizon for asset allocation and actuarial analysis, including interim drawdowns due to liabilities. In 2022, Northfield announced a partnership with Dynamo Software.
