Claim One:
1. A method for risk analysis of physical assets, comprising: identifying a first physical asset class, said class comprising at least one first physical asset; identifying a second physical asset class, said class comprising at least one second physical asset; modeling the first and second physical assets as derivatives, wherein the step of modeling is accomplished by; identifying a first financial commodity with a correlation between the first physical asset class and the first financial commodity; identifying a second financial commodity with a correlation between the second physical asset class and the second financial commodity; collecting, with an asset analysis system, pricing data and volatility data related to the derivatives; the asset analysis system comprising a computer having a processor operably coupled to memory, the memory containing a plurality of computer-executable instructions, utilizing said asset analysis system to perform a first Monte Carlo simulation, the first Monte Carlo simulation relating said first financial commodity and said second financial commodity based on the collected pricing data and volatility data; and based on the Monte Carlo simulations, generating a collective risk profile for the first and second physical asset classes.
