Risk Management
FFastFill's advanced risk management system
provides risk managers with a powerful tool to define, customise
and automate the process by which they manage traders connected
to the electronic markets.
The system limits risk by controlling
the end users access by market, contract and trade size before
an order can pass through to the exchange. These orders can
then be 'marked to market' in real-time. Risk managers can
use the system to pre-set a trader's or client's trading
limits, position exposure, p&l and margins. This ensures
that individuals or groups of end users are prevented from
exceeding their available financial resources.
FFastFill's risk management is designed to be both functional
and scalable. Risk managers can organise and tailor their
own data through the use of 'drill-downs' covering individuals,
groups of traders or groups of products and varying from
global or country level to a local view. This functionality
is supported using three levels of visual alert based on
real time information. Crucially, all of this real time data
is made available using a calculation engine designed to
minimise the impact on processor utilisation and hence latency.
