BMO-Riskfuel Partnership

Riskfuel is partnering with BMO to accelerate valuation and risk management of their structured derivatives transactions. This announcement follows the successful completion of a pilot project to speed up valuation of autocallable notes whose long execution times using traditional valuation methodologies presented significant runtime challenges.

With ultra-fast valuations, traders at BMO can now test the impact of different market scenarios on its derivatives portfolios so that they can hedge the risk effectively. They can test ‘what-if’ scenarios with potential trades, and during a volatile market, they can prepare their strategy in advance for market swings in one direction or another. Additionally, the high performance Riskfuel models deliver accurate results with much lower cloud compute costs when compared with traditional numerical simulations.
