What if Your Risk Model Misses the Next Market Shock?

Amplify is pleased to report that an article written by Amplify Director of Research Ron Piccinini, PhD was featured in WealthManagement.com’s 2026 Market Outlook. In his article, “What If Your Risk Model Misses the Next Market Shock?” Dr. Piccinini discusses the downside of legacy risk models and how they may leave investors exposed to risk levels much like those experienced during recent market shocks, like Covid-19.

For growth-minded RIAs focused on scaling, enterprise value, and building client trust, Dr. Piccinini shares invaluable insight regarding how risk can and should be managed in today’s volatile world. In his analysis, Dr. Piccinini also provides a path forward for RIAs who want to take a modern approach to risk intelligence that relies on tail risk modeling and is now available outside of institutional frameworks thanks to risk engines like Amplify’s QuantumRisk^TM.
