RiskContainer Risk Aggregation & Reporting Solution

The

Transformative Role

of Data Visualisation

Data visualisation has the power to revolutionise how organisations interact with their data – RiskContainer is part of that revolution

Our client, a top tier Investment Bank client faced increasing regulatory pressure to enhance their risk aggregation and reporting capabilities across their complex trading activities globally.

Meeting regulatory demands while maintaining a competitive edge

In the ever-evolving landscape of global finance, Investment Banks find themselves under mounting regulatory scrutiny and pressure to enhance risk aggregation and reporting capabilities. In the wake of the 2008 financial crisis, regulators worldwide have intensified their efforts to safeguard the stability of financial markets.

This has resulted in a complex web of regulations and compliance requirements, placing a formidable burden on financial institutions.

To navigate this challenging environment successfully and demonstrate their ability to manage risk effectively, Investment Banks are increasingly turning to the experts in data visualisation.

Industry: Financial Services, Investment Banking

Challenges: Aggregating Risk

Our client had a highly fragmented risk calculation and reporting infrastructure.

The fragmented landscape prevented senior management from aggregating risk data across business lines.

Different risk calculation methodologies meant that a series of standardisation steps were required prior to aggregation.

Data Solution

Designing the RiskContainer Solution

Using enhanced data analytics tooling, we scoped and sourced risk information from multiple risk systems.

We established a set of standardisation rules to allow us to aggregate risk calculated under different methodologies.

Using the aggregated risk numbers, we structured the output to comply with regulatory reporting frameworks.

We worked with senior management and trading desk heads to develop an internal reporting dashboarding solution – RiskContainer.
