Toronto, November 30, 2022 — Riskfuel, the leading technology company in the field of machine learning for derivatives pricing, continues to make waves in the industry. Today, the company announced its win in the RiskTech100 Market Risk Innovation category and recognition as a Rising Star.

The Chartis RiskTech100® annual report is a comprehensive study of the world’s leading providers of risk and compliance technology, and Riskfuel’s recognition in this report is a testament to the company’s innovative and impactful solutions in the market. In collaboration with Microsoft and Scotiabank, Riskfuel’s technology has been shown to revolutionize the way investment banks approach valuation and risk calculations of complex derivatives products.
