CHICAGO and LONDON, Nov. 14,
2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Trading Technologies
International, Inc. (TT), a global provider of
high-performance professional trading software, infrastructure and
data solutions, and KRM22 plc (AIM: KRM),
the technology and software investment company that focuses on risk
management for capital markets, today announced that it is making
the KRM22 Risk Manager available to customers on the TT
platform. The sophisticated real-time post-trade risk service
significantly enhances the risk toolset available
through TT's growing ecosystem for futures commission
merchants (FCMs), brokers and traders.
The product's risk scoring system will help users instantly
assess real-time margin and liquidity, creating a new way for
futures and options on futures traders to generate alpha under the
most volatile market conditions. The offering currently covers
margin on existing positions and provides a full range of analytics
behind those positions, including the ability to anticipate
end-of-day margin. In the first half of next year, TT will add
functionality for margin on open orders, giving the brokerage
community serving firms and individual traders new tools to manage
risk at the time of the trade.
Jason Shaffer, TT EVP Product
Management, said: "We continue to execute on our strategy to
enhance the value we bring to customers on the TT network. This
latest step fulfills the commitment we made earlier this year to
bring powerful KRM22 risk tools into our platform."
KRM22 CEO Stephen Casner said
"This specialized risk service, available exclusively on the TT
platform, is the culmination of four years of developing the next
generation of market risk services on KRM22's Global Risk Platform.
Allowing TT users real-time margin analytics across multiple
exchanges with multiple margin methodologies will equip TT users to
be prepared to meet the latest challenges facing futures and
options traders today and well into the future."
Traders and risk managers on the TT platform can leverage KRM22
Risk Manager to deliver exchange margin and stress calculations
through the click of a button. Users can view start-of-day (SOD)
and intraday margin calculations and stress results that update
with each position change. SOD and intraday margin calculations
include Initial Margin, Maintenance Margin, Net Option Value (NOV),
Credit Allowance/Margin Ratio and Margin Risk Score.
The tool also provides full and granular visibility into
exchange margin values throughout the day at the commodity code
level, giving traders and brokers the ability to determine margin
concentration and better understand when they are approaching
margin and credit limits, and offering FCMs the capability of
setting alerts to trigger on predefined margin and credit limits,
along with other risk-reduction tools.
Stress risk calculations provide independent risk checks and
include standard deviation formulas and 20% volatility shocks to
options positions at each standard deviation point, worst-case
maximum loss outcomes and appropriate risk offsets in stress
calculations on related instruments as well as a credit
allowance/stress ratio and stress risk score.
