Post-Trade Risk Management

Rollcage is a post-execution risk management application that monitors client trading activity, executed through multiple trading front-ends, in real time. With individual, omnibus and group views, risk managers can rely on a single screen to identify high risk accounts in real-time and intervene accordingly.

Whether trades are executed electronically, filled on the floors of open outcry or brokered out, Rollcage calculates account margins using predefined spreads and strategies. Inter-market grouping, offsetting and margining features ensure a more efficient use of capital, delivering real-time assessments of P&L, credit risk and trading power.

Built on Windows-based infrastructure, Rollcage maximizes standard desktop technology and easily integrates with third party price feeds and SPAN engines. This user-friendly application provides a single interface to manage both electronic and open outcry markets.

Exchange connectivity includes: LIFFE, EUREX, CBOT, CME, CLEARING 21, NQLX, OM, ONECHICAGO, IDEM, IPE, LCE, LTOM

Key Benefits

Resource Efficiency - Rollcage is a front-end independent application, which means multiple trading front-ends can be managed through one interface. By consolidating the risk management process to a single application, firms can broaden their risk assessment capabilities while minimizing their operational overhead.

New Business - Rollcage delivers the additional security and stability firms need to continue growing their business. With Rollcage, new customer types and product markets, previously deemed high risk, can safely be approached.

Maximize Trading Power - By consolidating trade execution data and real-time prices into a central database, Rollcage is able to calculate margins based on non-exchange supported spreads and strategies. This strategic functionality maximizes an account's trading power without adjusting the line of credit.
