Microservices

Our goal is to provide useful functionality for Derivative markets, covering pre-trade and post-trade analytics, data, risk management and regulatory compliance.

We make available many Microservices covering:

  • Portfolio margin for Cleared Swaps
  • Portfolio margin for Bi-lateral Derivatives using ISDA SIMM
  • XVA analytics for Margin Valuation Adjustment (MVA)
  • Basel Capital regulations, FRTB SA and IMA
  • Portfolio risk management and hedging analytics
  • Trade level analytics, compliance and format conversion
  • SDR, for price and volume transparency from trade repositories
Microservices can output results in CSV, TSV, JSON or HTML formats.

Code examples for Python, Perl, R and Julia show the Microservices in action and a Sandbox area, which allows you to try directly within your browser.
