QRM
The Quantitative Risk Management (QRM)
Asset/Liability system is the industry leader in risk management software and is used by many of the world's largest financial institutions. QRM provides a full balance
sheet market value analysis based on specific
position data, product specific behavioral
assumptions, market data and interest rate
scenarios generated using one of several
arbitrage-free term structure models. QRM has
the ability to specify a benchmark sector to
mark balance sheet items to market based on
actual prices of similar traded instruments.
The model utilizes these advanced pricing
models, Andrew Davidson & Co. (ADCo)
prepayment vectors, Intex, Interactive
Data pricing, Bloomberg, and non-maturity
deposit assumptions to most accurately
calcuate NEV in the up/down 300 rate shock
scenarios.
Clients are able to accurately and
thoroughly measure the risk of their balance
sheet under any economic scenario by utilizing
deterministic and/or stochastic forecasts. QRM
accurately prices an instruments' embedded
optionality, whether it is a cap or floor, an
option to enter a swap, or a prepayment option.
Our analysts work with clients to model even
the most complex assets, liabilities, and
off-balance-sheet instruments. Clients are
also able to run Net Interest Income (NII)
forecasts and perform future market valuations.
