As risk management increasingly plays a central role in today’s financial institutions, RiskMetrics Group continues to pioneer the standards and systems that enable the robust measurement and management of financial risk.

Please join us for the launch of the next generation of our flagship market risk solution - RiskManager. We will discuss some of the most pressing risk management needs of the financial community, the latest trends in how risk management is performed at leading financial institutions, and how RiskManager addresses current issues in a scalable and practical fashion, including:

• The integrated use of a global security master covering millions of equities, fixed income, commodity, and derivative contracts
• Interactive security calculators that provide transparency into all pricing models based on your own assumptions
• The creation, generation, and distribution of custom, production-quality dashboard reports
• A graphical report builder for on-the-fly analysis of exposures, sensitivities, stress tests, and risk
• The ability to perform dynamic what-if analysis and to see the effects of adding positions, rebalancing portfolios, and applying hedges
• A highly flexible stress test module allowing users to create custom scenarios and apply arbitrary combination of shocks to over 750,000 market risk factors
• Complete user-configurable batch functionality to automate the overnight loading of portfolios, running of analyses, and distribution of results and reports
