Burlington Hall Asset Management was originally incorporated in 1985 as a money management firm. The development of the LaPorte Asset Allocation System was begun in 1987 and the first system was delivered in 1988. Owing to the success of the LaPorte system, Burlington Hall now concentrates solely on the development of financial software.

The LaPorte software package is designed for use by pension plan consultants, brokerage firm research departments, individual brokers, investment companies, fund of funds managers, family offices, commodity pool operators, money managers, banks and insurance companies. LaPorte provides these organizations with the capability to maintain performance data on a wide variety of investments, search for the best performing investments and do statistical analysis of funds or managers. The main use of LaPorte is for its asset allocation capabilities with a unique approach for dealing with client risk tolerance. The package also contains a wide range of analytical graphics and report generators plus linkages to popular packages such as Excel.

As a comprehensive tool for building diversified portfolios, LaPorte offers a wide range of investment performance databases for traditional investments such as mutual funds and equity money managers. Special emphasis has been placed on providing performance data for new and exciting alternative investment areas such as managed derivatives and hedge funds.

The founder of Burlington Hall and the guiding force for the development of the LaPorte system is Richard E. Oberuc. Richard, Sr. has an extensive background in the derivatives area having spent the better part of 20 years conducting commodity supply/demand analysis for the M&M/Mars Corporation as well as implementing hedging methodologies for controlling the cost of raw materials.

Before that Richard Oberuc worked at the Manned Spacecraft Center in Houston developing real-time simulators used in the training of NASA astronauts. Richard, Sr. has an undergraduate degree in Physics from Loyola University in Chicago as well as a masters degree in Operations Research from the University of Houston.

Joseph A. Pica is the Sales and Marketing Director of Burlington Hall. Joe has had a long and distinguished career selling financial software products including quote delivery systems. Mr. Pica operates from Burlington Hall's sales office in Trenton, New Jersey.

The LaPorte team of six professionals takes pride in the level of support provided to its more than 200 customers worldwide. Burlington Hall looks upon itself not only as a software developer but also as an education firm. Providing an understanding of the methods of asset allocation and statistical analysis of investments is our most important goal.
