SEI Partners with RiskMetrics Group to Deliver Independent Risk Reports to Clients

Trusted Data Provider Partnership Expands SEI's Risk Solution and Offers Hedge Funds Risk Reports through SEI's Manager Dashboard & Investor Portal

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates, December 15 - SEI (Nasdaq: SEIC) today announced it is collaborating with long-standing
partner RiskMetrics Group (NYSE: RMG), a leading provider of risk management
and corporate governance services to the global financial community, to
provide its investment manager clients and their investors with in-depth,
independent risk management and reporting services that will integrate
directly into the company's flexible Manager Dashboard tool. This new
offering enhances SEI's risk management solution and further addresses
investment managers' critical needs for greater transparency and detailed
risk reporting amid growing investor demands and regulatory complexity.

As a result of the affiliation, SEI's investment manager clients will be
able to join RiskMetrics' HedgePlatform Community, a network of hedge fund
managers, fund of hedge fund managers, and institutional investors. As
members of the HedgePlatform Community, SEI's clients will have access to an
interactive application, RiskManager(TM) Investor Reporting, which allows
them to create monthly summary reports that they can distribute directly to
their prospects and investors inside and outside the community. In addition,
these managers may allow member investors to aggregate their funds with
others to view their overall risk profiles. The resulting summary analyses
and reports are based on security-level positions, yet are produced without
revealing actual underlying individual position details. Additionally, the
in-depth risk management and reporting information will also be accessible
directly via SEI's Manager Dashboard and Investor Portal. This functionality
allows SEI to independently create enhanced risk and return reporting,
providing managers with greater information transparency in a single
integrated view.

"This partnership gives our clients access to industry-leading risk
reporting information, in addition to existing portfolio reporting SEI
already generates, that they can view and manage directly from our dashboard
and portal tools," said Phil McCabe, Senior Vice President and Solution Head,
SEI's Investment Manager Services division. "By pairing the RiskMetrics'
HedgePlatform Community with our robust data warehousing and technology
tools, our hedge fund clients can increase the risk transparency they provide
to their investors without increasing the amount of data they have to manage.
This is a critical capability for managers in today's regulatory and
increasingly demanding investor environment. RiskMetrics shares our
commitment to strong data governance and transparency and we are pleased to
partner with them."

"SEI is a leading provider in the investment outsourcing space and we're
excited to add their hedge fund clients to our HedgePlatform Community," said
Brian Schmid, Head of RiskMetrics Group's Alternative Investments Business
Strategy. "Now, not only can SEI enable their clients to provide summary risk
reports to investors on a monthly basis, but they also are able to provide
enhanced individualised reporting through their proprietary dashboard."

Both SEI and RiskMetrics will jointly publish and maintain the list of
asset classes covered through their partnership. To learn more about becoming
