Sell-Side Technology Awards 2013: Best Overall Sell-Side Product of the Year ─ Numerix
CVA has, particularly since 2008, become the de facto credit risk measure for buy-side and sell-side firms, as it highlights the difference between the risk-free valuation of a portfolio and the value of that same portfolio taking into consideration the possibility or likelihood of a counterparty's default. Naturally, such calculations are extremely complex and time-consuming, which means that the ability to support fast and accurate calculations can provide sell-side firms with a competitive advantage. In this respect, Numerix CVA scores highly, allowing banks to calculate CVA measures for large portfolios on an intra-day basis, and incremental CVA in real time, which includes support for complex derivatives and structured products, utilizing a generic tree implementation of American Monte Carlo CVA, or Monte Carlo valuation of American options. CVA calculations can also be run ad-hoc for pre-trade analysis and dynamic CVA hedging.
The Numerix CVA tool incorporates the vendor's CrossAsset analytics platform that supports three crucial requirements: flexibility, transparency, and the ability to meet regulatory demands in terms of satisfying counterparty credit risk exposures for Basel III compliance.
Numerix also supports any instrument type within its CVA framework by virtue of its CrossAsset analytics platform. Calculations for potential future exposure, funding value adjustment, debit value adjustment, and liquidity value adjustment, from both a trade and portfolio level, is also possible with full incorporation of multi-curve modeling.
