EduMarkets Market Risk
Portfolios built across the platform (bonds, swaps, options, and CDS) come into one place for risk analysis. The module covers Value at Risk under Monte Carlo, Expected Shortfall for the tail, stress tests against historical and hypothetical scenarios, and sensitivities to the factors that drive the portfolio. Aggregation runs across asset classes, so a hedge in one book offsets exposure in another where the risk factors overlap.
