Markit Reaches South Africa with IQ Partnership

Markit Analytics specializes in simulation-based risk-management techniques, such as credit valuation adjustment (CVA).

"South African financial institutions, like their counterparts around the world, are facing a raft of new regulations requiring them to better understand and manage risk," says Nigel Cairns, MD and global head of Markit Analytics and Portfolio Valuations. "Our Markit Analytics offering brings together a complex set of risk measures including CVA, initial margin and regulatory capital to provide customers with flexible tools for dynamic management of risk and funding."
