Liquidity-at-Risk, a core component of Validus’ risk advisory analytics, is already available in Horizon’s RiskView module on an end-of-day basis, providing potential worst-case liquidity scenarios that a fund’s hedging program could trigger under adverse market conditions.
Validus clients regularly incorporate LaR values into investor presentations to demonstrate their funds’ ability to meet capital requirements under stress scenarios. Now, with LaR analytics and live-feed pricing integrated directly within TradeView, fund managers can access up-to-date liquidity insights closer to the point of execution, enabling them to assess the impact of a range of potential hedging transactions. Ultimately, clients are better positioned to choose more favorable counterparties, optimize trade execution and manage liquidity risk.
Horizon’s advanced analytics and risk modelling capabilities are powered by Validus’ proprietary quantitative engine, developed in-house over more than a decade. Clients access scenario analyses, pricing, hedge analytics and liquidity-at-risk assessments from a single underlying quantitative framework; which enables unparalleled consistency and accuracy across advisory, trading, and financing.
Commenting on the integration of the LaR module, Jeremy Wang, Chief Product Officer at Validus Risk Management, said: “Liquidity-at-Risk has traditionally been an end-of-day or ad hoc metric because of the computational complexity involved. By applying machine learning techniques and parallel compute infrastructure, we have significantly accelerated these calculations and made real-time liquidity analytics available within TradeView. This gives traders immediate visibility into indicative pricing and the corresponding liquidity impact of their hedging decisions, enabling more proactive liquidity management.”
