Let me introduce myself

Hi, I'm Dany from Peru πŸ‡΅πŸ‡ͺ. I'm the creator and sole maintainer of Riskfolio-Lib, one of the most popular Python libraries for investment portfolio optimization. I studied economic engineering and I have a master in finance. I learned to programming by myself because I like to applied finance theory to real problems.

Current projects

  • My star project is Riskfolio-Lib, an investment portfolio optimization library that has become very popular among practitioners, academics and students around the world.
  • Riskfolio.jl, a julia version of Riskfolio-Lib that is under development.
  • My academic research in new portfolio optimization techniques, you can see my SSRN page here.

How my work benefits you

Riskfolio-Lib is widely used by retail investors and institutional investors, it is possible that your investment advisor, mutual fund or pension fund are using Riskfolio-Lib to explore new investment ideas. On the other hand, academics and students use Riskfolio-Lib to try the widest variety of portfolio optimization models in theoretical and applied research, some users that are MBA and Master in Finance students told me that they are using Riskfolio-Lib to elaborate their thesis.

Why I need your help

For me is very important to get sponsorship, I dedicate my free time to these projects as a hobby but I would like to dedicate more time to them and if it is possible live developing open-source projects. Also, I would like to update my equipment because it doesn't let me try new techniques, that are very intensive computationally, that I want to implement in my current projects or new ones.

@dcajasn

I need your help to secure the future of Riskfolio-Lib and related projects. Riskfolio-Lib has become very popular among asset managers around the world, however do not receive external funding from the individuals and companies that rely on them, so it's up to all of me to keep them alive. Your sponsorship means that this project and new related projects can continue to exist for everyone free and open-source. Also, your sponsorship will helps me to continue with my academic research and its implementation in open-source projects. The more we raise here, the more I can serve the community.
