Our comprehensive valuation services span the full fair value hierarchy. With a blend of technical rigor and industry insight, HedgeStar stands apart:
We use observable market prices for exchange-traded futures, options, and other standardized derivatives. These valuations rely on live data to provide an immediate, clear view of current market conditions.
When direct market quotes are unavailable, we utilize inputs supported by observable data. Our analysis for interest rate swaps, currency forwards, and commodity derivatives translates less direct data into reliable valuations.
Complex derivatives require advanced modeling to account for unobservable inputs. Our quantitative techniques for structured products and long-dated options produce defensible valuations that accurately capture instrument details.
