History

The company was set up in 2000 by a British economist, William Perraudin, to carry out consulting and software projects for financial firms.

In 2002, their first risk management software system, Risk Controller™, was launched. It is a multi-period credit portfolio model suited to resolving choices faced by financial firms such as:
 * Deciding overall capital for a financial enterprise or a single division within an enterprise.
 * Calculating RAROC-style how individual exposures contribute to enterprise wide risk and how this should be reflected in pricing new business.
 * Allocating assets so as to trade off risk and return efficiently.
 * Designing risk transfers through securitisation or portfolio reinsurance.

The latest product, Stress Controller™, is a framework that performs macro stress analysis of credit and market portfolios. It takes the stressed event through to the balance sheet and P&L, thus integrating risk with the bank’s strategic planning functions.
