  • I need real-time aggregation of risk exposures across trading desks / business lines with drill-down capabilities to book/trade level.

    For most firms this is a major headache. Despite repeated attempts by in-house development teams the problem remains unsolved, leaving traders and risk managers frustrated. Hyper Rig tackles the problem in a unique way by focusing on the data management issue first and foremost. With Hyper Rig you can transform data into different formats. You can massage and cleanse data in real-time. You can aggregate data according to any set of rules you choose. Hyper Rig presents a user interface that is graphical and intuitive. Information is easy to understand and absorb that means you can respond quickly and decisively.

  • I need to be alerted to exceptional activity or opportunities that may foretell exceptional risk or exceptional profit.

    Gone are the days when risk managers could afford to sit back and wait until tomorrow. The new trader/risk manager has to move quickly or the opportunity is lost. That is why we designed Hyper Rig to be able to monitor and respond to thousands of market events per minute. Not only that but perform thousands of complex calculations to analyse your entire portfolio in seconds and automatically send you alerts. Speed of analysis is the key to exceptional trading performance.

  • I need to dynamically aggregate my counterparty risk exposure.


    Typically counterparty risk is recorded in a number of different systems organized by business line or asset class. This makes it tricky to assess the net exposure. Add to this potential future exposure (PFE) and the problem becomes computationally intensive. Now with Hyper Rig you can aggregate counterparty exposure and perform PFE calculation in close to real-time. Our unique combination of high performance and data integration means that you can check counterparty risk pre-trade.

  • I need to quickly integrate data from multiple sources that may store trades using different data models.

    Hyper Rig has integrated data management with risk management. With Hyper Rig you can hook up multiple sources of trades, market data and reference data and have a fully orchestrated view in real-time. Hyper Rig's in-built data management tools reduce the time and cost of data integration projects and provide solutions that bring agility and flexibility to your business.

  • I need real-time P&L monitoring with break-down by component.


    At Hyper Rig we believe that flying blind without instruments is a bad idea. Finding out that you crashed yesterday can be painful if not fatal. That is why we made it possible for senior risk managers to monitor P&L and risk as it happens. To achieve this we created a set of integrated tools that can handle multiple data sources, myriad formats and complex relationships and then bring it all together in a concise dashboard of highly aggregated business critical information.

  • I need to calculate risk measures inc. Monte Carlo VaR, Component / Incremental VaR, MTM, P&L, Greeks, Counterparty Exposure, PFE & Limit Utilisation.

    In-house built systems and vendor risk management systems cannot cope with the volumes of data and computational intensity. They struggle to provide meaningful results even after working on the problem all night. At Hyper Rig we are now able to offer firms a solution. Using advanced software technology Hyper RIg can process the largest and most complex trading portfolios in minutes without resorting to tricks or short-cuts.

  • I need to perform real time stress tests on risk factors such as Prices, Base and credit curves, Volatilities, Correlations.

    Regulators, politicians and the public at large have been shocked into demanding that financial trading firms learn the lessons of recent times. Meaningful stress testing requires that firms understand the complexity of their positions in the context of current market conditions. It is no longer sufficient to run a block of static tests once a month. Simply put, Hyper Rig provides the tools you need to make realistic and meaningful stress tests possible within the necessary timeframe - which has to be intra-day.

  • I need to perform complex scenario analysis with alert thresholds for my risk managers.

    Hyper Rig gives you one easy to use screen where you can select the curves and risk factors you need and build the scenarios you want. Then you can store them and run them when-ever you like, during the day, several times a day. But that’s not all you can hook-up your scenario with actual market conditions and Hyper Rig will automatically alert you when those conditions are breached.

  • I need to perform real time pre-trade VaR or what-if analysis to be able to see how any prospective trade will impact my risk positions.

    For complex portfolios it has never been possible to analyse the risk of taking on a new position without taking short-cuts or approximations. Now with hyper Rig you can do even more. Pre-trade you can run full Monte Carlo simulations and scenario tests in minutes leading to a far greater understanding of risk and reward.
