Risk101’s base capability was a dependable bond derivative valuation system. The company’s technology range has extended over the years to include equities, commodities and money market derivative asset classes. After building a robust PMS system, attention was then turned to developing risk capabilities to suit the requirements of the global client and investor base. The latest addition to the suite of performance and contribution modules is an attribution capability for all price-traded asset classes and their derivatives.

Where the earlier client-base consisted mainly of bank treasuries and bond issuers, more recent developments have focussed on hedge funds, Prime Brokers and Funds of Funds. The product currently interfaces with fifteen Prime Brokers and Clearers, three administrators, and four data and trading platforms.

Clients are congregated in the Pacific Rim, South and Southern Africa, and the United Kingdom and Europe.
